I adoooore the light pink shimmer when light hits my alocasia ‘cuprea’ 🥹✨ pictured with and without flash to show just how reflective these dazzling leaves are!

Side note — I thrifted this rattan planter for $2 over the weekend, in case anyone gives a hoot 🤣

Beautiful plant. And I like expensive planters but I’m cheap. Only buy on sale plus get many from Goodwill. Many are not even planters. I drill holes in the bottom to make the into planters.

I love it. I almost bought one at a plant show recently but decided on an azlanii instead
