Alocasia azlanii

Alocasia azlanii is a small Bornean jewel Alocasia, described in 2016 and known from Brunei. Its dark, metallic purple-green leaves have red to purple colouring along the veins, and plants stay about 30 cm tall. Almost nothing is published about its wild habitat, so its care follows other small lowland Bornean understory Alocasias: warm, humid, shaded conditions and an airy, moist mix.

Where it grows wild

Wild habitat details are not published in the sources available. It is presumed to be a small terrestrial herb of shaded, humid lowland to hill rainforest floor, like the other jewel Alocasias of Borneo.

No elevation data is published or recorded. Brunei is mostly lowland and hill country below about 1,000 m, so a lowland to hill-forest origin is assumed.
