In general, Alocasias can be a tricky plant to take care of – Hilo Beauties are no exception. The Hilo Beauties makes the effort worth it with dramatic lemon-yellow variegation and a growth pattern, unlike the other plants in your collection. These plants love a bright spot without direct sunlight – like next to the window, on a shelf, or on a side table. Too little light will cause the plant to lose some vibrancy, and more light will cause bleached foliage. When the first inch of the soil feels dry, water slowly and thoroughly, stopping only when you see excess liquid draining from the bottom of the pot.
Keep a humidifier near the plant for the best results!
