This plant, sometimes called "Platinum Alocasia," has not received a formal species classification yet
It is known for its impressive, silvery leaves and unique, shiny texture that make it a sought-after ornamental plant among collectors.
Alocasia 'Bisma' silver reaches a height of about 50 cm and develops large leaves that can be up to 30 cm long and 20 cm wide. When young, the leaves have a rounded shape (the petiole is attached in the middle below the leaf), but they change and become more oval as the plant matures. The underside of the leaves is bright red, which distinguishes it from similar species such as Alocasia 'Silver Dragon' , whose leaf undersides are always green.
Care advice : Alocasia bisma silver grows slowly and thrives best in indirect light, reflecting its natural environment in the jungles of Borneo. Plant it in well-drained soil with high humidity and keep the soil slightly moist at all times. Alocasia 'Bisma' prefers a stable and warm environment, but avoid direct sun which can damage its delicate leaves.
