About Alocasia holla
Alocasia holla is a selected cultivar in the jewel Alocasia group. It features compact, upright growing habit with stiff, arrow-shaped leaves. The leaf blades display a velvet-sheened dark green upper surface contrasted by light-green or silver-green venation. While its precise wild ancestry is obscure, it has gained popularity among collectors for its rich foliage texture and neat clumping growth.

Before you buy
- Confirm the leaf has a genuine velvet sheen rather than a plain matte or glossy finish; this texture is the plant's main identifying trait given its obscure, undocumented parentage
- No recorded market price exists for this cultivar yet. Don't assume an asking price reflects an established market rate
- Check the venation is light-green or silver-green against the dark blade, consistent with the described form
- Given the slow growth rate and dwarf clumping habit, don't expect a young offset to reach full size quickly; factor this into any price comparison with larger specimens
