Artificial Alocasia (Elephant Ear) 130cm — Bold Tropical Drama at a Versatile Height
The alocasia, or “elephant ear,” has some of the most dramatic foliage in the plant world — large, glossy, spade-shaped leaves, heart-shaped at the base and tapering to a point, held on upright stems. This artificial alocasia brings that sculptural tropical presence indoors permanently at 130cm tall — a versatile mid-height that makes a genuine statement in most rooms without demanding a lobby-sized space.
A real alocasia is a demanding houseplant — it wants warmth, humidity and careful watering, and drops leaves dramatically when unhappy. The artificial version gives you those magnificent leaves in any spot, including the dim corners and busy rooms where a living one would struggle.
Choosing Your Alocasia Size
- 120cm — fits a normal room: a corner, bedroom or office nook.
- 130cm (this one) — a versatile mid-height statement for living rooms, entrances and offices.
- 160cm — a lobby or entrance statement for larger, high-ceilinged spaces.

Where It Works
- Living room corners & beside furniture — a bold green statement at a comfortable scale
- Entryways & foyers — a welcoming touch of the tropics
- Offices & receptions — a sophisticated statement, zero upkeep
- Cafés, clinics & retail — big-leaf impact that never needs tending
What You Get
- Height: approx. 130cm (~4.3ft), including pot
- Foliage: large, glossy, dark-green spade/heart-shaped leaves on upright stems
- Pot: round black nursery pot
- Assembly: minimal — unbox, straighten stems, angle the leaves
Styling It
The nursery pot is functional, meant to sit inside something decorative. Drop it into a ceramic, concrete or woven planter (roughly 28–32cm diameter) and finish with moss to hide the rim. Angle the big leaves outward and at varied heights so the plant reads full and natural.
A Note on Placement & Sun
Alocasias are shade-loving, indoor plants, so an artificial one suits interiors and sheltered outdoor spots — out of direct sun. Prolonged direct sunlight in Singapore will fade artificial foliage over a few months, so keep it back from a bright window, or ask us about UV-treated options for exposed positions. Anywhere shaded or indoors, the colour holds indefinitely.
Care
Dust the large leaves with a soft dry cloth every couple of weeks, or wipe them clean — big glossy leaves show dust. No watering, feeding or re-potting — ever.
