    •   Alocasia 'Mirror Face', also called Mirror Face, is a rare jewel alocasia native to the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia, where it grows as an understory plant beneath a dense forest canopy. It belongs to the Araceae family and is closely related to Alocasia sinuata, sharing that species' quilted, deeply textured leaf surface.

        'Mirror Face' produces compact, upright leaves with a deep forest green surface that catches light across its heavily quilted, almost metallic texture. The leaf veins are pale and sharply defined, running in clean lines across the puckered surface. It stays compact, with each leaf emerging on a slender petiole from a central base, and the overall growth form stays tight and rosette-like at this 4" pot stage.

        Confirmed flower details for this collector aroid are limited, so it's worth noting other outstanding traits instead. 'Mirror Face' naturally humidifies the air around it as part of its tropical physiology. It is a rare collector find among aroid enthusiasts, and its glossy deep green foliage with that distinctive quilted texture keeps it in high demand.

        Place it in a terrarium or near kitchen moisture to meet its high humidity needs. 'Mirror Face' is sensitive to being moved once settled, so choose its spot carefully. Move it outside in summer in a sheltered location, and keep it covered from rain. Cats, dogs, and small children should be kept away from it, as the sap causes skin and paw irritation if contacted, and it should be kept on a high shelf out of reach. Rotate the pot regularly so each side receives even light exposure.

    •   Alocasia 'Mirror Face' - 4" Pot grows best in bright indirect light, away from south-facing windows where leaves scorch.

        Water it every 7-10 days, allowing the top inch of soil to dry between waterings; it wilts slightly when dry.

        'Mirror Face' does best in a chunky, well-draining aroid mix of perlite, orchid bark, and potting soil.

        It prefers temperatures between 65°F and 85°F and is sensitive to cold drafts from air conditioning or heating vents.

        'Mirror Face' is a slow to moderate grower; feed it with a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during spring and summer.

        It is hardy in USDA zones 10-12, where frost is rare and temperatures stay above 30°F. It grows outdoors year-round in Hawaii, southern Florida, and southernmost California. It can summer outdoors in containers across much of the continental United States when brought back inside before temperatures drop below 60°F.

    • Q: How much humidity does Alocasia 'Mirror Face' - 4" Pot need?
      A: It needs high humidity, ideally 60% or above. A pebble tray with water, a humidifier nearby, or placement in a terrarium or near kitchen moisture all help maintain that level.

      Q: How do I know when it needs water?
      A: Alocasia 'Mirror Face' - 4" Pot wilts slightly when the soil has dried out enough to need water. Check the top inch of soil before each watering rather than watering on a fixed schedule regardless of conditions.

      Q: Can 'Mirror Face' grow in a terrarium?
      A: Yes, a closed or semi-open terrarium suits it well. The consistent humidity inside a terrarium matches the conditions it prefers from its rainforest habitat.

      Q: Why are the leaves turning yellow?
      A: 'Mirror Face' most often yellows from overwatering, low humidity, or cold air from a nearby vent. Check that the soil is not staying wet between waterings and that the pot is not sitting in a cold draft.

      Q: Is Mirror Face safe for pets?
      A: Cats and dogs should not be left to nibble or eat it. The sap also causes skin and paw irritation on contact, so keep it on a high shelf out of reach.

      Q: How do I propagate Mirror Face?
      A: Mirror Face is propagated by dividing offsets or pups from the base of the mother plant during repotting. Each division should have at least one node and a portion of root attached before being potted separately.

      🌿 For Houseplants
      When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
      Please remove your plants from their packaging as soon as possible and review the care instructions included with your order. Water based on your plant’s needs, making sure not to overwater.
      Houseplants may need a short adjustment period after arrival. Give your plant time to acclimate to its new space before placing it with other plants. You can gently clean the leaves if needed, and wait to fertilize until it has settled in. Always check soil moisture instead of watering on a fixed schedule.
      *** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages.
