Alocasia 'PORTORA' also known as Giant Elephant Ear. It is a fantastic specimen plant for that tropical look, and is also a great indoor plant. It has large, glossy emerald green leaves 3-6 feet long, held stiffly upwards, with prominent veining on the underside of the leaves.

The plant will easily grow to 6-8 feet in good conditions in the ground. If grown in a pot/container, it will not grow its full potential, but still expect at least 5 to 6 feet (or more) if your pot/container is large enough.

This is a very fast growing Alocasia. In good conditions, a tiny bulb will grow the size in 5 feet in less than a year because it grows so fast, it is a great plant for those of you who have nice enough summers. You can grow it outdoors during the spring and summer, where it will grow its full size in a season.

Like all Alocasias, this plant requires warmth and humidity. The soil should be rich but well drained, and the plant appreciates watering in alternate days, especially in hot weather and as the plant grows larger.
