A beautiful variety of Alocasia, with dark-green leaves that have an almost scaly, textured appearance. This plant is native to the Samar Island of the Philippines, growing in tropical areas. It is also known as the ’Samar Lance’ due to its origin and the lance shaped point of the foliage. New leaves emerge paler with a glossy sheen, becoming darker as they age, with muted red-pink abaxials (undersides of leaves).
