Alocasia Jacklyn Corm
Grow Alocasia Jacklyn (Alocasia tandurusa) from the beginning with one live corm for propagation. This accepted Sulawesi species is prized for dramatically divided green foliage, pronounced surface texture and patterned petioles that give mature plants a wild, architectural appearance.
Quick Answer
Looking for an Alocasia Jacklyn corm for sale?
This listing is for one live standard-green Alocasia Jacklyn corm for propagation. Jacklyn is the horticultural name widely used for Alocasia tandurusa, an accepted species native to Sulawesi, prized for mature foliage that becomes dramatically divided and for its distinctive patterned petioles.
Jacklyn Identity
Alocasia Jacklyn and Alocasia tandurusa
The plant sold in the houseplant trade as Alocasia Jacklyn is associated with the botanical species Alocasia tandurusa. The species was formally published in 2023 and is accepted by Plants of the World Online. Its native range is Sulawesi, where it occurs in the wet tropical biome.
Its collector appeal comes from strongly divided foliage and an unusually rugged silhouette. A young corm will not show those mature traits immediately; they become increasingly apparent as the plant establishes and produces successive leaves.
| Feature | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Botanical identity | Alocasia tandurusa |
| Native range | Sulawesi |
| Mature foliage | Green foliage developing a strongly divided, dramatic silhouette |
| Petiole character | Distinctive patterning |
| This listing | One live corm of the standard green form |
One live Jacklyn corm only—not the mature plant pictured.
Mature foliage develops dramatic, deeply divided margins.
Distinctive petioles add contrast below the textured foliage.
Why Collectors Love It
A foliage shape that looks unmistakably wild.
Alocasia Jacklyn stands apart from smooth-edged Alocasias. Mature leaves develop elongated, deeply lobed margins and a visibly textured surface, creating a rugged silhouette with substantial dimension.
The foliage is supported by distinctive patterned petioles, adding another layer of collector appeal. As a corm-grown Jacklyn matures, successive leaves reveal more of the dramatic shape and texture associated with established specimens.
Signature Characteristics
- Deeply lobed green leaves
- Pronounced foliage texture
- Long, dramatic leaf shape
- Patterned petioles
- Upright architectural growth
- Classic standard Jacklyn form
Important Jacklyn Disclosure
This listing is for standard green Jacklyn.
This product is the standard green form sold as Alocasia Jacklyn. It is not represented as Jacklyn Aurea, Jacklyn Mint, Albo or another variegated form. Buyers should expect the characteristic green textured foliage and patterned petioles associated with standard Jacklyn.
The product received is a corm. Mature lobing, surface texture, petiole pattern and final proportions develop after sprouting.
What You Will Receive
One carefully selected live Jacklyn corm.
Corms naturally vary in size, shape, exterior texture and stage of growth. Mature plant imagery represents the plant the corm can develop into; the physical item shipped is one corm only.
What You Can Verify at the Corm Stage
Jacklyn’s dramatic foliage develops through growth.
A bare corm cannot display mature leaf lobing, surface texture, petiole markings or final plant size. At the corm stage, you can evaluate the physical propagation material and visible roots or growth points when present. The recognizable Jacklyn characteristics become apparent as foliage develops.
How to Start Your Corm
Warm. Humid. Moist—not waterlogged.
Orient the growth point upward when identifiable. Maintain warmth, elevated humidity and bright indirect light while keeping consistent moisture and oxygen around the corm.
Environment
Best Sprouting Conditions
- Warm temperatures
- Elevated humidity
- Bright indirect light
- Lightly moist media
- Clean conditions
- Gentle airflow
Avoid Rot
Keep moisture balanced.
Avoid burying a newly starting corm in dense, saturated substrate. Persistent softness, foul odor or spreading mushy tissue can indicate rot; a firm dormant corm may simply require more time.
Care After Sprouting
Build a strong root system before sizing up.
After healthy roots and active foliage develop, transition gradually into a loose, well-draining aroid substrate. As Jacklyn begins producing larger leaves, give the plant room for its increasingly dramatic foliage while keeping the root zone airy and evenly moist rather than saturated.
Jacklyn Foliage Notice
Juvenile leaves may look simpler at first.
A first juvenile leaf can be smaller and less deeply lobed than mature Jacklyn foliage. As the plant establishes, successive leaves can become larger, more textured and more dramatically divided, while the characteristic petiole pattern becomes increasingly visible.
Shipping & Live-Corm Notice
Every corm is living propagation material.
Your Jacklyn corm may arrive dormant, rooted or unrooted, beginning to sprout, showing a visible growth point, carrying dry exterior layers or displaying minor natural discoloration. Open promptly and place it into suitable propagation conditions.
