Alocasia reginula 'Ninja' grows small dark velvety leaves with crisp pale veins and a tight, layered habit. The plant stays tidy in a compact container, with new leaves building compact layers. Rounded to slightly heart-shaped blades sit close together, creating a jewel Alocasia with strong contrast from close inspection. The matte surface and bright venation give the plant depth even before the leaves become large. The dense habit keeps the dark leaves layered, with pale veins visible across several blades at once. Keep watering careful with a loose potting mix around the roots. A higher shelf suits homes with grazing pets.
