Alocasia Jacklyn - Alocasia tandurusa

While people say, "You've got to see it to believe it" to describe any number of items, with the Jacklyn Alocasia, you've got to feel it to believe it. We've felt a lot of Alocasias with velvety, soft textures, but Jacklyn is the first Alocasia we've ever come across (and we come across many different types) with rough-textured leaves. It's a truly unique Elephant Ear aroid due to the shape of its leaves which become deeply-lobed with maturity and the leaves' texture, which is already apparent even in young, baby plants. This variety will certainly have your houseguests needing to feel it to believe it. So go ahead and buy one and your plant will be the talk of the town (or at least the neighborhood).
