Pro Tip

Frydek is prone to spider mites—wipe down leaves regularly and keep humidity up to help prevent pests. If it drops leaves in winter, don’t panic; dormancy is normal.

  • Light and Placement

    Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can fade or scorch the leaves. Best suited to well-lit rooms where the light is filtered or diffused—think east- or north-facing windows.

  • Watering and Care

    Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Water when the top inch feels dry, and reduce frequency during cooler months. Frydek is sensitive to overwatering and low humidity, so ensure good drainage and consider placing it near a humidifier or pebble tray.

  • Growth and Size

    Typically grows to 1.5 to 2 feet tall indoors, with leaves that can span up to 12 inches long. It may go dormant in winter, dropping leaves before bouncing back with new growth in spring.

  • Pet-Friendly?

    Alocasia frydek is considered toxic if ingested. Best to keep out of reach of curious pets.

  • Benefits and Air Quality


    While not known for strong air purification, its bold form and rich green tones provide a natural visual anchor in bright interiors.

  • Difficulty level

    Moderate to Challenging – This one prefers a consistent watering schedule, higher humidity, and a stable environment.
