African Mask Plant Height:50-60cm Nicknamed the String of HeartsDespite what its name suggests, the African Mask Plant, or Alocasia Polly, actually comes from South America. Instead, the name comes from its resemblance to, you guessed it, an African Mask. The Alocasia Polly is known for its striking patterned foliage and giant leaves they can grow up to 30cm in length! Although their leaves can get big, they're slow growers and unlikely to be bigger than 60cm indoors. Alocasia Amazonica care can bit a bit tricky.
