Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid')

Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid') is a large cultivated Alocasia hybrid with upright leaves, strong petioles and a vertical growth habit. As it develops, the leaf spread widens above the pot, with broad blades held high from a fleshy base.

The foliage is carried on thick green petioles rather than woody stems. Mature leaves can become broad and heavy, so the plant needs steady warmth, bright filtered light and a stable pot that can hold the weight of the upper growth.

Large-leaf traits of Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid')

  • Growth habit: Large upright Alocasia hybrid with strong petioles.
  • Leaf position: Leaves are held high from the base, giving the plant a vertical outline.
  • Leaf surface: Dark green upper leaf colour with lighter venation.
  • Leaf underside: Purple-toned undersides can show strongly as leaves mature.
  • Container behaviour: Needs a stable pot and space around the petioles as the plant sizes up.
  • Plant type: Cultivated Alocasia hybrid with broad upright leaves.

Upright Alocasia growth

Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid') develops from a tuberous Alocasia base and produces leaves one by one on sturdy petioles. The plant’s size and leaf weight make pot stability important: a narrow, light container can become unbalanced once several large leaves are present.

New leaves may look soft at first and harden as they expand. Handle the plant carefully during moving or cleaning, as large Alocasia leaves can tear along folds or edges even when the plant is healthy.

Care for a larger Alocasia hybrid

  • Light: Give bright filtered light with enough exposure to keep the petioles firm. Harsh direct sun can scorch exposed leaves.
  • Watering: Keep the mix evenly moist during active growth, then let the upper layer dry slightly before watering again.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, well-aerated aroid mix. Heavy wet soil can suffocate the fleshy roots.
  • Warmth: Keep temperatures stable and warm. Cold roots combined with moisture can cause fast decline.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps large new leaves open with fewer stuck edges.
  • Pot stability: Use a pot with enough weight for the plant’s upright leaf mass.
  • Space: Give the petioles room around the plant so new leaves can expand without pressing against walls, shelves or neighbouring pots.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly while new leaves are forming. Avoid strong fertiliser on a plant recovering from shipping or root stress.

Issues on Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid')

  • Leaf droop: Can follow dry substrate, root disturbance or sudden environmental change.
  • Yellowing: Often comes from cold wet substrate, compacted soil or a stressed older leaf.
  • Leaf tears: Large leaves can split from handling, transport or rubbing against nearby objects.
  • Brown edges: Irregular moisture and dry air can mark the margins, especially on expanding leaves.
  • Pests: Spider mites, mealybugs and scale can hide along veins, petioles and the underside of large leaves.

Safety for Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid')

Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid') is toxic if chewed. Its tissues contain irritating calcium oxalate crystals that can cause mouth and throat irritation, so keep the plant away from pets and children.

Alocasia 'Mayan Mask' ('Williams Hybrid') develops into a vertical Alocasia with tall petioles, broad green blades, purple-toned reverses and a heavy clumping base.

So very long….
Format: Paperback
Every time Yeltsin takes a nap? Paragraph. Bush mumbles something indecisive to Scowcroft? Boom—chapter! I felt like I was experiencing the fall of the Soviet Union in real, agonizing time. Look, it’s a fine book. If you’re going for a career in the foreign service, this is a good place to start. Otherwise, you can get a fine rendering of these events in much more concise form elsewhere.

P O W E R F U L .
Format: Paperback
The author summarized: "The ghost of the disappeared Soviet Union ... still haunts the imagination of contemporaries .... This amazing story teaches us not to trust in the seeming certainty of continuity and should help us prepare for sudden shocks in the future" (p. 439). An engrossing in-depth eloquent analyses concerning the events and individuals affecting the 1991 demise of the Soviet Union. Moreover, the unforeseen Chernobyl nuclear disaster on April 26, 1986, crystallized the horrors of a possible nuclear war. Thus, a new orientation to end the exorbitant arms race with the United States. Further, General Secretary Gorbachev promulgated new reforms, including, relaxing travel restrictions in 1989: "... [T]he shock that thousands of Soviet people experienced when they crossed Soviet borders and visited Western countries .... For first-time Soviet travelers to the West a visit to a supermarket produced the biggest effect. The contrast between half-empty, gloomy Soviet food stores and glittering Western palaces with an abundant selection of food was mind-boggling.... This experience changed Soviet travelers forever" (p. 82). At times, repetitive and somewhat confusing. For instance, U.S. President Bush needed Gorbachev's approval for his Iraq offense, which was initially described on Page 143, then inexplicably again, on Page 172. On another occasion, the author indicated that Yeltsin was influenced by Alexander Solzhenitsyn's brochure "How To Rebuild Russia," on Page 150, which is again repeated, on Page 173. Scrupulous editing needed. Notwithstanding such glitches, nonetheless, a fascinating detailed portrayal of the unexpected implosion of a superpower. Having read other books on the subject, if I had to select only ONE about the USSR collapse, I would choose this as the best.

Thought Provoking
Format: Kindle
I bought this book after I heard the author on a podcast. Growing up in the US we have been inundated with the story that the collapse of the Soviet Union was an inevitable triumph of liberal, Western values. I had my doubts. Even poorly run dictatorships can muddle along for years. What the author did was center Gorbachev in the story. He was the eye of the storm. It was the terrible combination of Gorbachev’s ambitious idealism and gross ineptitude that led to the dismantling of the Soviet Union. Unlike much of Marxist historical narratives which emphasize the forces of history; the author shows that it’s individuals who shape events and are shaped by them. A different person than Gorbachev could have turned the tide in a different direction and left us a different world than we have today. This is a history book that teaches lessons not just about the Soviet Union but about human history in general.

A compelling account of the fall of the USSR
Format: Kindle
Zubok describes blow by blow the series of decisions that sent the USSR towards disaster. Gorbachev, widely hated in Russia, comes across as principled but indecisive, ignorant of economics, and incapable of translating his worship of Lenin into coherent action. The book reads like a thriller despite the density of facts. Zubok is a pessimist, but his thesis is convincing.

Fascinating, an against the grain account of the perestroika era
Format: Kindle
Gorbachev is hailed as a hero in the West but the book tells the story of a meek, naive individual that precipitated the fall of the Soviet Union creating suffering and an a!most unprecedented calamity.
