Fitzgerald, an Alocasia Micholitziana Frydek, is probably one of the most popular rare plants right now! You can't flick through Instagram without seeing one of these grab your attention.
He has a soft velvet leaf texture, complimented by an iconic arrowhead shape. If that wasn't enough, he has bright white veins that split up the deep green leaves.
Fitzgerald really is is a must-have for all true plant lovers.
Fitzgerald, Alocasia Frydek
Fitzgerald prefers bright indirect light to partial shade without prolonged exposure to direct sun - a touch of morning sunlight however would be welcomed.
If you’re not sure what level of light you have, check the shadows cast by your plant:
- Minimal shadow = lower light
- Half shadow = indirect light
- Full shadow = direct sun
