Plant Set: The Maharani Family – Trio of Rare Alocasias
This collector’s set unites three extraordinary baby Alocasias in 6 cm pots – each one with distinct texture, tone, and charm. The trio includes Alocasia melo, Alocasia reginula ‘Black Velvet’, and their exclusive hybrid, Alocasia ‘Maharani’. Together they highlight everything that makes this genus so fascinating: sculptural foliage, bold contrasts, and compact growth that fits even the smallest space.
What’s inside the Maharani Family set
Alocasia ‘Maharani’ – Baby plant in a 6 cm pot. Known as the “Grey Dragon”, with firm, leathery grey-green leaves that feel almost sculpted.
Alocasia reginula ‘Black Velvet’ – Baby plant in a 6 cm pot. A compact grower with deep-green, velvety leaves crossed by sharp silver veins.
Alocasia melo – Baby plant in a 6 cm pot. Recognised for its thick, corrugated, stone-like foliage and short, sturdy habit.
All three are shipped together in one carefully packed set, ready to root and grow into their mature, textured forms.
Why the Maharani Family set stands out
This rare combination offers not only two iconic Alocasia species but also their natural hybrid – a living example of how diverse the genus can be. Each plant has a different surface and colour tone, yet they complement each other beautifully when grouped. Ideal for collectors, beginners, or anyone looking to start an Alocasia corner with real depth and variety.
