Alocasia Scalprum – Rare Sword-Like Foliage for Sale

Alocasia Scalprum is a rare and compact Alocasia species native to the Philippines.

It is known for its distinctive narrow, blade-like leaves with a deep green, leathery texture and pronounced venation.

• Humidity & Temperature: Prefers humidity levels above 60% and stable temperatures between 18–26°C. Avoid cold drafts and dry environments.
