Safari Morocco Alocasia (Alocasia 'Morocco')

Safari Morocco Alocasia is a distinctive tropical houseplant valued for its dark glossy foliage, pale veining, and colorful pink-toned stems. Its arrow-shaped leaves bring a refined elephant ear look indoors, while the rosy petioles add warmth and contrast beneath the foliage. This compact to medium Alocasia works well on plant stands, in bright corners, in offices, and in decorative containers where bold foliage is the main attraction. With bright indirect light, warmth, humidity, steady moisture, and a chunky well-drained mix, Safari Morocco Alocasia brings polished tropical structure to indoor plant collections.

Distinctive Features

Safari Morocco Alocasia produces deep green, glossy, arrow-shaped leaves marked with pale silver-green to white veining. The foliage rises on pink to rosy petioles, giving the plant a colorful upright framework and a more refined look than many plain green houseplants. Its growth is generally compact to medium indoors, forming a symmetrical clump with a strong architectural presence. Flowers may appear occasionally on mature plants as a spathe and spadix, but this Alocasia is grown primarily for its foliage and rarely blooms as a houseplant.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Grows best in bright indirect light or filtered sun, with protection from harsh direct sun that can scorch or mark the foliage.
  • Soil: Prefers a chunky, fertile, well-drained aroid mix with organic matter and added aeration from materials such as bark, perlite, or similar amendments.
  • Water: Keep soil lightly and evenly moist during active growth, allowing the upper portion to dry slightly before watering again, and avoid soggy conditions.
  • USDA Zones: Best grown as a houseplant in most climates and outdoors year-round only in frost-free tropical conditions, generally USDA Zones 10 to 12.
  • Mature Size: Typically reaches about 2 to 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide indoors, depending on pot size, light, humidity, and care.
  • Habit: Forms an upright, clumping tropical houseplant with glossy arrow-shaped leaves rising from the base on pink-toned petioles.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a colorful indoor focal point on plant stands, office displays, entry consoles, bright corners, or decorative containers where its dark leaves and pink stems can stand out.
  • Container Planting: Grow in a well-drained decorative pot that supports steady moisture while allowing excess water to drain freely.
  • Collector Plant: Feature in a specialty tropical plant collection where its Safari Series background, pale veining, and rosy stems can be appreciated up close.
  • Interior Accent: Pair with softer green houseplants, ferns, pothos, or trailing plants to create contrast in leaf shape, height, and texture.
  • Patio Plant: Move outdoors during warm weather in a shaded or filtered-light location, then bring indoors before temperatures turn cool.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water when the upper soil begins to dry, then allow excess water to drain fully so the roots stay moist but never waterlogged.
  • Humidity: Provide moderate to high humidity indoors to help reduce leaf edge browning and support clean foliage growth.
  • Light Care: Keep near a bright window with filtered light and rotate the pot occasionally for balanced upright growth.
  • Leaf Care: Wipe leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep the glossy foliage and pale veining visible.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during the active growing season with a balanced houseplant fertilizer, following label directions.
  • Dormancy: Reduce watering if growth slows in winter, since Alocasia may rest or drop leaves when light and temperatures decline.

Why Choose Safari Morocco Alocasia?

  • Pink-Toned Stems: Displays rosy petioles that add warm color and contrast beneath the dark green foliage.
  • Glossy Foliage: Produces deep green arrow-shaped leaves with pale veining for a refined tropical look indoors.
  • Manageable Size: Offers bold Alocasia presence while staying practical for plant stands, offices, bright rooms, and containers.
  • Collector Appeal: Brings a distinctive Safari Series look for plant enthusiasts who appreciate unusual foliage and stem color.
  • Container Friendly: Performs well in decorative pots when given bright indirect light, steady moisture, warmth, humidity, and excellent drainage.

Safari Morocco Alocasia is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a tropical houseplant with dark glossy leaves, colorful stems, and strong indoor presence. Its pale-veined foliage, pink-toned petioles, upright habit, and manageable size make it a standout plant for bright interiors, decorative containers, and foliage-focused plant collections.

Perfect for my mid size pit bull
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Updating my review, the ball only lasted 5 days. I left the 5 stars because we had enough fun those 5 days to be worth the small price. She has dog has a lot of jaw strength, so I’m not surprised We have a mid size foster pit bull. This ball is her favorite toy. It’s durable and the perfect size for her to play ball safely.

Good quality
Color: Ultra, Size: Large, Color: Ultra, Size: Large
Great quality. I purchased for my daughter’s dog who destroys all toys. This toy holds up. I didn’t realize it was a large and the chickit stick she had was a medium. The large ball ended up working out good for playing inside the house. The dog likes it a lot.

Please read!
Color: Ultra, Size: Large
This dog ball is so useful! We have a large property and we use the Chuckit! thrower with the ball. The color and material of the toy is very high-quality and lasts for a long time. We have been using the Chuckit! brand for a long time now and we love their dog products! It is a good price and we buy replacement balls like once or twice every 6 months because they keep getting lost in bushes or trees 😂 After some time the color of the ball gets washed out and since our dogs are aggressive chewers, one of the balls we got broke and split open, but it was still usable! The reason that one broke is because we had it for a HECKA LONG TIME! It has no squeaker so when your dog has the ball it wont make any loud and annoying sounds. It is easy to pick up with the thrower and it seems durable and sturdy enough to last them a few months. I don't recommend as a cat toy because this ball is specifically designed for dogs. But is your cat likes fetch i guess it could work! The ball is soft enough to not be hard as steel, but is sturdy enough to not break immediately.

Awesome quality balls -- my dog loves them!
Color: F) 3-Pack (2.5" Balls)
Love this 3 ball set and variety and quality. These are the 2.5" size, similar to a tennis ball size give or take. The fun citron yellow one is the thickest + heaviest, very bouncy, and tough. The blue is still tough but not as thick or bouncy, a bit more flexible. And the clearish one is the lightest/flexible and is glow in the dark [although we haven't tried that part yet]. I have a 7month old 40lb girl who is becoming like a power chewer on some things -- but hasn't done that with these. She can play, mouth them, chew them, not even one knick or anything. Yes! The citron and blue one we leave out all the time in her little toy box. They have holes in the middle and have used them to hold thinner bully sticks and other treats. The blue one is fun to put smaller treats inside that she can work out like a puzzle. Obviously they are fun for fetch! We leave the other up and only get out when we can play with her because label said it is not a chew toy so we didn't want to take chances. Overall super fun and cool and good quality, human and dog approved LoL. ***We ordered the 2 set of 4" balls, blue and purple [they are same consistency of the blue ball] and love these too! Very fun and good at using with treats the sticks too, plus these don't get lost under sofas and furniture like the smaller ones, a big plus.
