Alocasia sp. Sulawesi ‘Sabrina Narrow’ Aurea Variegata – Variegated Collector Alocasia
Alocasia sp. Sulawesi ‘Sabrina Narrow’ Aurea Variegata is an exceptionally distinctive collector Alocasia with long, narrow leaves, an upright architectural habit and striking yellow-to-golden variegation across the foliage. The underlying ‘Sabrina Narrow’ form is an undescribed Alocasia from Sulawesi, Indonesia, recognised in cultivation for its slender leaves, subtle venation and patterned petioles; the aurea-variegated form adds bold, irregular colour that makes every leaf unique.
Why You’ll Love It ✔️
✔️ Appearance – Long, spear-shaped leaves combine deep green colouring with irregular aurea variegation in yellow, lime and golden tones.
✔️ Growing Appeal – Its upright, relatively narrow growth habit gives it strong visual impact without the broad spread of many larger Alocasias.
✔️ Point of Difference – ‘Sabrina Narrow’ is already an unusual Sulawesi collector form, and the aurea variegation adds an extra layer of rarity and individuality to each plant.
Care Tips
🌞 Light: Bright indirect light is ideal. Good light helps support strong growth and variegation, but avoid harsh direct midday or afternoon sun, which can scorch lighter sections of the leaves.
💧 Water: Water when the upper few centimetres of potting mix begin to dry. Keep the mix lightly and evenly moist during active growth while avoiding constantly saturated conditions.
💦 Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity, with around 60% or higher being beneficial. A humidifier can help in dry indoor conditions.
🌡 Temperature: Ideally around 20–28°C. Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.
🌱 Soil: Use a loose, chunky, well-draining mix containing coco coir, coco chip & perlite to maintain moisture while allowing plenty of air around the roots.
🌿 Fertiliser: Controlled-release fertiliser is already added to the potting mix. A balanced liquid fertiliser can be applied occasionally during active growth.
🚫 Toxicity: Alocasias contain insoluble calcium oxalates and are considered toxic if chewed or ingested by pets or children. Keep out of reach.
Also known as: Alocasia ‘Sabrina’, Alocasia sp. Sulawesi ‘Sabrina Narrow’, Alocasia sp. ‘Narrow Sulawesi’

Disclaimer: Please note that while this plant has been individually photographed, natural changes may occur between the time of photography and when it reaches you. Factors such as new growth, seasonal variation, and environmental conditions can influence colour, size, and shape. The photos serve as an accurate guide to how the plant looked at the time of the photo, but some differences are to be expected as each living plant continues to grow and change.
We get a lot of questions about how our shipping works, so here’s a simple breakdown 🌿📦
Our shipping rates are charged per box, with each box able to fit up to 8 × 75mm potted plants.
As a general guide:
• 75mm pots make the best use of space, with up to 8 plants fitting in one box
• 100mm pots take up more space, so a box will usually fit around 3 plants depending on their size and shape
If your order requires more than one box, the website will automatically add the additional shipping charge.
For example:
• Up to 8 × 75mm plants = 1 box
• Larger 100mm plants use more box space and may reduce the total number of plants that fit in each box
