Alocasia 'Stingray'

Alocasia macrorrhizos 'Stingray' is a cultivated Alocasia macrorrhizos with rounded, slightly cupped leaves and a long, narrow terminal tip. The blade sits on a tall petiole and extends into a tail-like point, giving each leaf its stingray outline.

This is a vigorous Alocasia with a thick rhizomatous base, upright petioles and broad spread as it matures. In a bright, warm indoor position, it can develop into a large container plant with an open base and leaves held clearly above the pot.

Tail-tipped macrorrhizos leaves

  • Botanical base: Cultivar of Alocasia macrorrhizos with an unusual blade form.
  • Leaves: Rounded, cupped blades with wavy margins and a long narrow terminal tip.
  • Growth habit: Upright, large Alocasia with thick petioles and a strong central growth point.
  • Origin story: Associated with Sarawak material and later wider propagation in Southeast Asian cultivation.
  • Container behaviour: Needs room for large petioles, active roots and a gradually thickening base.

Cultivar origin and mature scale

Alocasia 'Stingray' is a cultivar of Alocasia macrorrhizos with a leaf mutation that changes the blade into a rounded form with a long tail-like tip. It is associated with material found in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, and later propagation in Thailand.

The blade is rounded and slightly cupped, with an undulating edge and a very long terminal drip tip. In containers it behaves like a large macrorrhizos-background Alocasia: fast when warm, hungry while new leaves are forming and dependent on a stable root system to carry its oversized leaf stems.

Root space for Stingray growth

  • Light: Keep the plant in soft bright light with enough intensity for tall petioles and large leaf expansion.
  • Watering: During warm active leaf production, keep the mix evenly moist; in lower light, widen the intervals so the large rhizome stays warm and aerated.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, fertile mix with bark, composted fibre, pumice or perlite and good moisture retention.
  • Drainage: Give the roots an open path for water and air, as heavy soil can sit wet around the rhizome.
  • Temperature: Maintain 18–30 °C in the active season. Warm conditions help leaves size up.
  • Humidity: New leaves open most cleanly in moderate-to-high humidity during warm indoor growth.
  • Feeding: Feed regularly in spring and summer; established plants respond well once roots fill the pot.
  • Pot choice: Use a broad, stable container to balance the height and weight of the petioles.
  • Repotting: Repot when the root ball becomes dense or watering runs straight through the old mix.
  • Outdoor summer placement: A sheltered, bright outdoor position can help growth after gradual acclimation.
  • Propagation: Divide established offsets or corms through the main growth season and keep divisions warm while rooting.

Seasonal changes in the petioles

  • Long, leaning petioles: Improve light exposure step by step and turn the plant so the base develops evenly.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check watering intervals, root space and temperature; older leaves cycle out as the plant sizes up.
  • Brown leaf edges: Look for dry substrate pockets, salt build-up or hot window exposure.
  • Soft rhizome base: Inspect root health, drainage and recent temperature drops immediately.
  • Distorted new leaves: Check for pests and protect the emerging leaf from repeated rubbing or handling.

Alocasia macrorrhizos 'Stingray' develops its clearest mature outline with floor-level space around the base. Turn the pot occasionally so the petioles develop evenly and the newest leaves have room to unfurl cleanly.

Removing older leaves cleanly

Treat freshly damaged Alocasia 'Stingray' tissue as irritating. Use a stable pot position, dispose of old leaves carefully and wash your hands after division.

Macrorrhizos background and stingray leaf form

Alocasia macrorrhizos belongs to Araceae and supplies the species base for 'Stingray'. The epithet macrorrhizos points to large roots or rhizomes, while the cultivar name describes the long tail-like leaf tip; 'Sting Ray' appears as a spacing variant in cultivation.

Pretty good, take your time and install it well
Size: side table leg
Materials are pretty solid, but once assembled it’s not as sturdy as you would think it should be since the material itself was solid, i say give them a chance, everything out there that’s similar is way over priced

Robust pipe & fittings with a beautiful, smooth black finish
Size: side table leg
This set of pipe & fittings for use as low table legs is heavy duty and aesthetically pleasing. Especially when the pieces are handled, the tactile sensation is much nicer than with plumbing steel pipe because this product is beautifully finished smooth. The black pipes are quite smooth as well as the fittings. The pieces are all also pretty robust, though the wall thicknesses are less than in pipe for pressurized water systems. Of course that makes sense as this product does not need to hold fluid pressure. In my view they got the heaviness factor of this product just right; it's not as heavy or robust as black pipe used in natural gas supplies, but still robust and pretty heavy. Assembled, this product is absolutely stiff and unyielding for a solid table that could hold a man's weight easily. The feet utilize a brilliant scheme so that each foot can be independently adjusted for an uneven floor. Thus a level table on an uneven floor is easily accomplished. The feet simply extend the effective leg length by screwing counter-clockwise. To prevent any shifting at the threads adding some pipe compound or teflon tape may be advised. Even masking or duct tape might work as the idea is to just fill any gaps where male threads meet female threads. The four flanges at the tops of the legs provide a wide, solid surface for attaching the table top, with either hidden screws underneath or you could through-bolt a glass table top (provided you have the skill to drill glass!). I think this product would look great with a glass top. Assembly is quick and easy. The hardest part is drilling holes underneath the table top to accept screws. No pipe wrenches are needed as the pieces screw together by hand to an adequate tightness. If any doubt whether they are tightened enough have a strong person with grippy gloves finish. The "X" in the center attaches to the legs with a very clever machine screw system tightened with the included hex wrench. This is presumably because if tightened simply by screwing the fittings, the point of snugness would not likely be where the "T" fittings are exactly vertical. The maker has solved this problem so that you are assured that all legs will be in the perfect vertical position once everything is tight. The setup is also nice and rigid once tightened. This is a huge benefit of steel pipe projects; they are really solid. The black finish is clearly very durable, like a powder coat. It appears that it will provide excellent protection against rust. Coverage is complete; I found no dings or scratches anywhere on any piece. Overall this is a very well-designed product for function and aesthetics. Perfect for a beautifully renovated warehouse condo where an industrial vibe is desired in a rock-solid table that won't shift around. The smoothness of the pipe is top notch. I've used lots of pipe in projects, some of it actual water pipe and some decorative pipe such as this. I've never seen better quality decorative pipe as this maker put in the effort to finish it beautifully smooth. At currently $34.99 I find the price quite reasonable too.

Good DIY Pipe Legs but Powder Coat Quality Lacks
Size: side table leg, Size: side table leg
These industrial style pipe legs make building a DIY end table easy and the kit saves a trip to the hardware store. The fittings go together normally and assembly is simple. Comes individually wrapped. My main issue is the powder coating looks and feels cheap and rubs off easily. The pipes already had marks from touching each other from unboxing. If you do not mind some wear on the finish over time this is a decent purchase. The metal at the hardware store will be thicker and more durable but will cost more. I’d recommend based on ease of having a kit and it being delivered saving me a trip.
