Alocasia Dwarf Elephant Ear | Samso Planter Small | Plant & Pot Pairing

Product Description

Dramatic foliage meets earthy charm in this gorgeous little pairing!

The Dwarf Elephant Ear (Alocasia × amazonica ‘Dwarf Amazonica’) is a real showstopper with its striking, arrow-shaped leaves, deep green colouring and bold silvery-white veins. Its compact growth habit brings all the tropical drama of a larger Alocasia in a more manageable size, making it perfect for shelves, side tables and smaller indoor spaces.

Paired with the Samso Planter in Rust by Middle of Nowhere, this combination is all about beautiful contrasts! The planter's warm terracotta-inspired colour, smooth matte finish and softly rounded silhouette provide the perfect backdrop for the Alocasia's dramatic foliage, creating a modern statement piece with plenty of personality.

The Alocasia remains in its original nursery pot, nestled inside the decorative cover pot for easy watering and ongoing care. A gorgeous ready-to-display gift for plant lovers, collectors or anyone looking to add a little tropical flair to their home!

Good to Know

This is a styled plant and pot pairing, with the Dwarf Elephant Ear remaining in its original nursery pot inside the Samso Planter. Simply remove the nursery pot for watering, allow excess water to drain completely and return it to the cover pot.

Like other Alocasias, Dwarf Amazonica can slow its growth considerably during cooler months and may occasionally lose older leaves as new ones emerge. Keep it warm, provide consistent humidity and avoid letting the potting mix become waterlogged. With the right care, its beautiful foliage will continue to make a statement without taking over your space.
