Not sure which size to pick? We use nursery pot diameter as a simple way to help you compare plants and choose the right one for your space.
6 cm pot (plug)
Tiny, cute and full of potential. A great choice if you love watching your plant grow and develop from an early stage.
8–9 cm pot
Still compact, but already nicely established. Perfect for your indoor growth cabinet!
10.5–12 cm pot
More established, fuller and ready to make a statement. The perfect pick if you’re looking for an eye-catcher!
Pot diameter is a helpful indication of a plant’s size, but every variety has its own way of growing. Some naturally grow much larger than others, even when they share the same pot size.

Don't let her size fool you. The Alocasia Melo Albo is loved for her thick, rounded leaves and extraordinary texture, inspired by the rough skin of a cantaloupe melon. Her crisp white variegation, sometimes with a beautiful silvery glow, makes every leaf completely unique. Native to Sabah in Borneo, she naturally stays wonderfully compact, making this Jewel Alocasia the perfect fit for greenhouse cabinets, shelves and smaller living spaces.
Give your Alocasia Melo Albo plenty of bright, indirect light to support strong growth and vibrant colours. Alocasias thrive in slightly moist soil, but don’t like wet feet! Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil starts to feel dry. During spring and summer, feed your Alocasia at half strength with a balanced houseplant fertiliser every two weeks. Your Alocasia loves high humidity, so aim for 60-80% where possible, while maintaining good airflow around the leaves. Only repot when your plant becomes root-bound, moving up to a pot around 3 cm wider in diameter. Always use a light, airy and well-draining soil mix in a pot with drainage holes to keep its roots happy.
