Alocasia ‘Platinum’ is a rare and exquisite tropical aroid treasured for its silvery, metallic foliage and sculptural elegance. A hybrid member of the Araceae family, this cultivar is thought to derive from Alocasia reginula (the Black Velvet) or closely related jewel Alocasias, combining compact growth with a cool, shimmering tone that truly lives up to its name.

The leaves are thick, velvety, and distinctly heart-shaped, with a silvery-grey surface that reflects light like brushed metal. Deep green to charcoal veins carve through each leaf, enhancing the metallic contrast and creating a textured, three-dimensional appearance. New leaves often unfurl with a subtle blue-green tint before settling into their platinum finish.

Compact, sculptural, and deeply luxurious, Alocasia ‘Platinum’ is a statement species for collectors who value refined, jewel-like foliage. It brings an instant sense of depth and calm to modern interiors, pairing especially well with darker or variegated tropicals.


Alocasia ‘Platinum’ – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun may scorch or fade the delicate silver tones, while too little light can dull the metallic sheen and slow growth. A position near an east- or north-facing window is ideal, or filtered light through sheer curtains.

Watering

Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Water when the top 2–3 cm feels dry. Alocasias are sensitive to both drought and overwatering — aim for steady, moderate moisture. During dormancy or cooler months, reduce watering frequency but never allow the soil to dry completely.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers 20–28°C. Protect from cold draughts and temperatures below 16°C, which can trigger dormancy.

  • Humidity: Enjoys high humidity (60–80%). Use a humidifier, pebble tray, or group with other tropical plants to keep the air moist. Regular misting also helps maintain lush, blemish-free leaves.

Soil and Potting

Use a light, free-draining aroid mix — equal parts compost, orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. The roots appreciate a balance of airflow and consistent moisture. Repot every 1–2 years in spring, using a pot only slightly larger than the root ball.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during the active growing season (spring to late summer) with a diluted, balanced fertiliser formulated for foliage plants. Avoid over-fertilising; excess nutrients can damage the sensitive root system and dull the silvery colour.

Pruning and Maintenance

Remove yellowing or damaged leaves at the base to maintain plant health and appearance. Wipe the leaves gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and highlight their metallic texture. Rotate the pot every few weeks for even growth.

Growth and Maturity

A slow to moderate grower, typically reaching 30–50 cm in height and spread. New leaves emerge regularly during the warm season, each more striking than the last. Like other jewel Alocasias, it may enter a brief dormancy in winter — simply reduce watering and resume regular care when new growth appears.

Common Issues

  • Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Brown tips: Low humidity or mineral build-up.

  • Drooping: Cold shock or underwatering.

  • Pests: Can attract spider mites, thrips, or fungus gnats; treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap if necessary.


Background and Benefits

Alocasia ‘Platinum’ belongs to the growing family of “jewel Alocasias” — compact, slow-growing species and hybrids admired for their luxurious foliage and intricate surface textures. Its unique metallic tone and velvety finish set it apart from other Alocasias, earning it a reputation as one of the most elegant and photogenic varieties in modern plant collections.

Beyond its ornamental value, Alocasia ‘Platinum’ contributes to air purification, helping to improve indoor air quality while adding serenity and refinement to any room. Its manageable size and sculptural form make it ideal for display on desks, side tables, or plant pedestals.

Great Multi-Function Watch
Color: Gray/Digital/Gray
I absolutely love my Timex Ironman watches. I have had many over a very long period of time. Wonderful set of functions for the price. Very affordable. Easy to use. Lasts a long time. Very easy to read in standard lighting. I like the Indiglo when needed, but do not use it too often. Absolutely love the ability to set a repeat timer to remind me to do something at a fixed interval, or to keep me on task for a fixed period of time. Great to be able to set three independent alarms. Potential to capture a huge number of splits with the stopwatch. I purchased this watch to replace a similar model with a dead battery. I have replaced batteries in the past, but it is quicker and easier to buy a replacement watch. I am saving my old watches for that day in the future when the Ironman model may no longer be available. I expect this will be my watch of choice for the rest of my life.

Just fine if you have simple needs...
Color: Black/Digital/Black/Green
Exactly what I needed: a cheap, durable wrist watch. The only thing it was lacking were instructions, but about 5 minutes of messing with the buttons got it set up

Compared to g-shock?
Color: Black/Yellow
Firstly random public reviews can be comical…”it’s has a battery, terrible, One star” or “I don’t like yellow, one star” omg peoples do better. I’ll review this while comparing to an older style of g-shock from the same era. I’ll start by saying this timex rocks, for me in my mid 50’s it’s so retro and nastalgic, brings back memories, I may have even owned this model back in the day. What’s great about it- the display, larger digits than the typical g-shock and they are super crisp, clear and easy to read. The indiglo is awesome. This is the most accurate quartz watch I have aside from the atomic g-shocks that adjust themselves daily. I prefer a chunky watch and the g-shocks do a better job in that department. i feel this watch is rugged, but I’d still give the nod to g-shock in this department. 200M water resistance is the gold standard and this watch has it which I love for peace of mind for any water based activities. This is a 5 star watch at a great price. I still love some aspects of a g-shock better but its just preference.

Everybody loved the high-tech style and amazing functionality
Color: Black/Yellow
I'm not a Timex fanboy, and I've had my fair share of problems with the Expedition line, so this review is my honest opinion as a man who's worn Armitrons and Timexes since I was 10. I remember in 1992 when the Timex Ironman Triathlon with Indiglo was first launched - My older brother got one, then me and my neighbor friends. Everybody loved the high-tech style and amazing functionality. Even Bill Clinton was rock'n this watch, for those who don't remember. Quite simply, this is the perfect watch at a great price, in my opinion. Perfect as a gift for any man, and I think the original black/olive drab/yellow coloration is still the coolest. In this day and age of smartphones, it still pays to have this watch. The alarm is less annoying sounding than a cellphone, and doesn't wake up the entire house. To turn it off, just tap the watch, no more reaching for the phone or alarm clock. Timer comes in handy for anything; timing my kids' timeouts when they get in trouble, 15 minutes room clean-up times, etc. Chrono is fun for anything you wanna use a stop-watch for. I set the second time zone for Vietnam time. It really is a million times easier to use this watch for all of its functions than reaching for a smartphone or alarm clock, etc. If you;ve been relying on your phone for a few years as a watch/chronograph/timer/alarm - you'll be so glad you finally got a watch like this. I've never tried a smart-watch, however I feel those are not as necessary,durable or practical as a real watch. Other Timex watches I've used were freakin' trash - couldn't throw em away fast enough. Might as well open the box while holding it over a trash can, so the watch can fall right in when you open the box. That's my experience with the Expedition line-up. Back to this watch: The only thing I wish this watch could do is measure activity thermogenesis (calories expended throught the day) or work as a pedometer, which some smart-watches and other devices can do. I also cannott decide if I like this new, slightly larger, heavier/thicker design of the Ironman Triathlon over the 1990s design. The 90s models styling was "tight to death'. Star-split buttons were seperated. The mode button was yellow. Overall more compact and bi-cultural;by that I mean it looked great as an athletic watch or a politician, business man wathc. This new model is bigger, better ingress/shock resistance, and more of an athletic style over all, and is a little less colorful. I almost went with the G-shocks, but they still just look like crap and are waay to expensive. Sure, they have some better features, can survive WWIII, but I am a traveler. I need a watch that can work in the dark in any environment. The G-shocks are often using some kind of solar battery crap and rely on cathing a signal from an American automic clock in Colorado - good luck with that while your in Thailand on vacation.
