Alocasia gageana ‘Aurea Variegata’ is a rare, variegated “elephant ear” prized for its dramatic, heart- to arrow-shaped leaves splashed with vibrant yellow and creamy white over rich green. Each leaf has its own unique marbled pattern, making the plant a true statement piece for collectors and tropical-plant lovers alike.
This variety thrives in bright, indirect light, consistent moisture, and high humidity, and is considered moderately easy to care for with its naturally upright, architectural growth habit. Like all Alocasias, it contains calcium oxalate crystals, so it should be kept out of reach of pets and children.

Fertilizer: Feed with diluted balanced fertilizer every 4–6 weeks in spring–summer.
Pruning & Maintenance: Remove dead or yellowing leaves regularly. Pinch back stems to encourage bushier growth.
