A dwarf selection of Alocasia found by Denis Rotolante of Silver Krome Gardens in 1993. It is much smaller than Alocasia amazonica but more durable and compact. This plant is ideal for 4-6" production. The upper surface of the leaf is dark green and the midrib is typically a lime-white color. The primary lateral veins are surrounded by white-silver zones. The lower surface is typically matte purple with green-white midrib and major lateral veins.
