A whimsical and rare variety of Alocasia, known for its distinctive, glossy green leaves with rippling, wavy edges. The leaves are held upright on sturdy stems, creating an umbrella-like silhouette with a playful, twisted shape that is reminiscent of the antennas of the Teletubbies characters, hence its nam Foliage: Thick, deep green, paddle-shaped leaves with a slightly leathery, glossy texture and prominent veining. Growth Habit: A compact, bold, and sculptural plant with an upright growth habit, typically reaching 50-80 cm in height indoors. Water: Water when the top half (about 2-3 inches) of the soil is dry to the touch. Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy to prevent root rot. Humidity: Prefers high humidity (around 60-80%), so frequent misting, a pebble tray, or a humidifier is recommended in average home environments. Temperature: Best in warm, stable temperatures between 18–28°C (65–82°F). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops. Soil: Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, orchid bark, and coco coir. Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the spring and summer growing seasons with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer. Dormancy: It may go dormant and drop leaves during cooler winter months; reduce watering during this period.
