Alocasia Red Secret or Alocasia
cuprea 'Red Secret',
is a stunning and rare tropical houseplant with glossy leaves that emerge coppery-green and mature to a deep, metallic red. The undersides of the leaves are a maroon color, and the veins are a deep red, giving them a reptilian appearance.
In the right conditions, it can grow to be a compact and bushy plant, reaching a height of approximately 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 centimeters). Its relatively small size makes it suitable for tabletops, shelves, or as a statement piece in a decorative planter.
Alocasia Red Secret is easy to care for and a beautiful addition to any home or office decor.
