This plant prefers high humidity and can be a bit challenging for beginners due to its specific humidity and light requirements. However, its striking appearance makes the extra care worthwhile. It's important to note that Alocasia Melo is not pet-friendly and can be toxic if ingested. With the right care, this captivating plant can be a standout feature in any plant collection, offering both aesthetic appeal and a touch of the exotic.
