Alocasia Polly Corm
This listing is for one live Alocasia Polly corm for propagation—not a mature plant. Often searched as Alocasia Amazonica Polly or the African Mask Plant, Polly is known for compact growth, dark arrow-shaped leaves, bold pale veins and sculpted leaf margins.
One live corm only—not the mature plant pictured.
A common trade name used for Alocasia Polly and related Amazonica-type plants.
Dark foliage is crossed by highly visible pale venation.
Why Growers Love It
Classic dark Alocasia foliage in a compact form.
Alocasia Polly is one of the most recognizable Alocasias in cultivation. Mature leaves develop a deep green surface with sharply contrasting pale veins, an arrow-like silhouette and distinctly wavy or scalloped margins.
Its compact habit makes it popular with both newer Alocasia growers and established collectors. Rather than relying on variegation, Polly creates its contrast through dark leaf tissue, bright venation and strong geometric form.
Signature Characteristics
- Dark green arrow-shaped foliage
- Strong white-to-silver venation
- Wavy, sculpted leaf margins
- Compact upright growth habit
- Often sold as African Mask Plant
- Commonly searched as Alocasia Amazonica Polly
Name & Identification Note
Polly is commonly sold under several familiar names.
You may see this plant marketed as Alocasia Polly, Alocasia Amazonica Polly, Alocasia × amazonica 'Polly', or an African Mask Plant. These names are widely used in horticultural trade and search.
This listing is for the compact Polly form. It is not a promise of variegation, and the item received is a corm rather than the mature foliage shown in reference photography.
What You Will Receive
One carefully selected live Alocasia Polly corm.
Corm size, shape, exterior texture and stage of growth naturally vary. Your corm may be dormant, beginning to root, showing a growth point or already starting to sprout.
What You Can Verify at the Corm Stage
The mature vein pattern develops after sprouting.
A bare corm cannot show Polly's mature dark leaf color, pale venation, scalloped margins or final leaf dimensions. At this stage, the physical condition and developmental stage of the living corm can be evaluated; mature foliage traits become visible as the plant establishes and produces successive leaves.
How to Start Your Corm
Warm. Humid. Moist—not waterlogged.
Orient the growth point upward when identifiable. Provide warmth, elevated humidity and bright indirect light while keeping the corm consistently moist without creating stagnant, airless conditions.
Environment
Best Sprouting Conditions
- Warm temperatures
- Elevated humidity
- Bright indirect light
- Lightly moist media
- Clean conditions
- Gentle airflow
Avoid Rot
Do not keep it saturated.
Excessive moisture combined with poor airflow can encourage corm rot. A firm corm that has not sprouted may simply need additional warmth, stability and time.
Care After Sprouting
Build roots before moving into a larger pot.
After healthy roots and active foliage develop, transition gradually into a chunky, well-draining aroid substrate. Keep the young Polly in bright indirect light with consistent moisture while avoiding a permanently saturated root zone.
Polly Foliage Notice
Juvenile leaves become more distinctive with maturity.
The first leaves from a corm can be smaller and simpler than mature Polly foliage. Darker coloration, stronger vein contrast, deeper marginal waves and the familiar arrow-shaped silhouette become more evident as the root system strengthens and the plant produces larger leaves.
Shipping & Live-Corm Notice
Every corm is living propagation material.
Your corm may arrive dormant, rooted or unrooted, beginning to sprout, showing a visible growth point, carrying dry outer layers or displaying minor natural discoloration. Open the package promptly and place the corm into appropriate propagation conditions.
