Alocasia 'Imperial Red'

Alocasia 'Imperial Red' is a large hybrid Alocasia with broad green leaves, sturdy petioles and red to burgundy tones most visible on the undersides and stems. It develops a generous elephant-ear look in a pot once the root system has enough room to carry larger leaves.

Its parentage is Alocasia odora × Alocasia macrorrhizos 'Pink Petiole', with broad blades, upright growth and warm-growing roots typical of large hybrid Alocasia.

Broad foliage with red detail

  • Foliage: Large green blades with colour contrast strongest below the leaf.
  • Stems: Petioles can show red, pink or burgundy tones depending on maturity and growing conditions.
  • Scale: Builds into a substantial container plant with warmth, root room and feeding.
  • Hybrid background: Alocasia odora × Alocasia macrorrhizos 'Pink Petiole'.

Warm active growth in the pot

This plant has higher water and nutrient demand than many small jewel Alocasia while it is actively growing. The root zone should take a full watering and regain air soon after.

  • Light: Give strong indirect light from a large window or grow-light setup. Brighter softened light can improve leaf size and petiole colour.
  • Watering: Water deeply once the upper few centimetres of mix begin to dry. Active plants may need shorter intervals in summer.
  • Substrate: Use a coarse aroid mix with bark, coco chips, pumice or perlite and a fertile moisture-holding component.
  • Pot choice: Use a stable pot that balances the leaf mass while still matching the root ball.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm, especially after watering, with active growth around 20–30 °C.
  • Humidity: Even humidity helps broad new leaves expand with fewer dry margins.
  • Feeding: Feed at moderate strength during leaf production. Flush occasionally if salts collect in the mix.
  • Repotting: Repot while growth is active so fresh roots move into the new mix quickly.

Petiole colour and root health

  • Leaning petioles: Rotate the pot and check whether the plant is reaching for a stronger light source.
  • Yellowing after a cold spell: Inspect the lower mix and keep the root zone warmer before watering again.
  • Brown edges: Review watering volume, humidity and fertiliser strength.
  • Pest marks: Check the undersides of broad leaves for mites and thrips during warm dry periods.

Red petioles in interiors

This hybrid Alocasia is toxic if chewed and can irritate skin when cut. Keep broad leaves and cut stems away from pets and children.

Red petioles behind Imperial Red

The genus name Alocasia refers back to Colocasia, a related aroid genus. Mature petioles and leaf undersides can show red to burgundy colour beneath the broad green blades.

Skin Tone is Improving
I have noticed a significant difference in the tone of my skin. It has good texture and makes my skin feel soft. Most definitely wear sunscreen if you are going to be in the sun for long periods of time with this on.

Great Quality for the Price
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
Love these paper plates. They’re sturdy, microwave-safe, and hold up well without getting soggy or folding easily. Great for everyday use and cleanup is super convenient. Good value for the price and reliable for meals and snacks.

Nice and sturdy!
Size: 300 Count
This was our first time to try the Amazon Basics Everyday Plates. I typically purchase paper plates in bulk from a big box club store. These are just as good, if not better! They are thick and sturdy, and hold up well. The price point it also better! My only negative is the design on the plate isn’t the most appealing. I think it’d be better if the design was limited to just being on the edge, and not across the entire plate.
