Alocasia ‘Venom’ is a rare cultivated Alocasia prized by collectors for its unusual texture, pale silvery coloration, and distinctive elongated leaf tip that curls into a narrow, tail-like form. The leaves are shield-shaped with softly undulating margins, pronounced raised venation, and a lightly puckered surface. Juvenile leaves emerge darker green, but as the plant matures, the foliage develops its signature pale, matte, silvery-green finish, which remains consistent rather than darkening with age. Veins appear slightly lighter than the surrounding tissue, creating subtle contrast without heavy coloration. This cultivar was discovered around 2019 by Mason Lee of Mason Plants in South Korea as a spontaneous mutation of Alocasia ‘Amazonica’. The name ‘Venom’ refers to the dramatic curled leaf tip, which resembles a tail or fang-like extension. ‘Venom’ has a compact, upright growth habit with a rhizomatous base. It thrives in bright, indirect light, evenly moist but well-draining airy aroid soil, warm temperatures, and high humidity.

Note

Highly variegated leaves are prone to browning and may be more vulnerable during the shipping process. Alocasia grow new leaves and drop older leaves more frequently than other plants.
