Alocasia New Guinea Gold |
Awesome Gold Dust on Green Foliage!
Alocasia macrorrhiza "New Guinea Gold" - Cold Hardy to 0 Degrees! Zones 7 and up. Alocasia macrorrhiza ‘New Guinea Gold’ is a fun, colorful, and easy to grow macrorrhiza variety that originates from Papua New Guinea. The plant's "gold dust" mottling appears erratically throughout its life and its habit for producing variegated leaves is only at certain times of the year. Usually the variegation appears in late summer through autumn, however the plant can go an entire season without producing its matte yellow variegation. Don't worry if it does this, it will surprise you with a fresh variegated season soon enough. There seems to be no scientific or habitual reason for this growing behavior.
When these plants are young the leaves are normally completely green, but not always as the speckling begins a few months later. As the plant ages, the upright leaves grow into very thick and tall to 6 feet on strong stems, spewing a pure tropical look to any scenery. The leaves turn glossy over the green and gold speckling making this elephant ear plant very unique. It is one of the hardiest of all elephant ear plants being able to survive 0 degrees F, not a typo, but naturally does prefer warmer conditions. Just for the element of surprise and the size of this Plantae being, this makes a wonderful addition to your own eyes. You'll never know what to expect besides a giant elephant ear plant that is able to survive cold weather. Collectors Choice!
