Jax's survival guide

Dark dagger leaves, high shine!

Unapologetically sleek and edgy, Jax the Alocasia scalprum brings serious gothic sophistication to your jungle lineup! Endemic to the tropical rainforests of Samar Island in the Philippines, this rare collector plant gets its name from its stiff, arrow-shaped foliage that resembles sharp scalpel blades. As his leaves mature, they transform from a bright, glossy green into a deep, nearly black embossed surface with an eerie, metallic sheen and sunken dark veins. Jax loves high humidity, warm temps, and bright, indirect light to keep his dagger-like leaves growing thick and leathery. Give him chunky, well-draining soil, keep his roots snug, and Jax will gladly reign as the sharpest, most moody centerpiece in your collection!

Maintaining his sharp, moody centerpiece look and encouraging thick leaf development requires placing Jax in a warm, cozy environment with high humidity and bright, indirect sunlight safely shielded from harsh rays. Planting him in a chunky, highly aerated potting mix kept lightly moist lets Jax reign supreme with edgy, dark flair!
