Alocasia Plumbae or “Flying Squid”  is a fun plant with spooky and unusual leaves. It’s also considered to be one of the more rare plants to care for in the alocasia family. This alocasia only grows up to 1 foot tall and has a life-span of about 5 years. It has tiny leaves at the end of each green and burgundy petiole that are shaped like squid tentacles, hence its name.
