Alocasia 'Polly'

Alocasia 'Polly' is a compact Alocasia with thick, dark green leaves, bright vein definition and sharply scalloped margins. The blades are more oval than those of 'Amazonica', with a dense, sharply defined look in a pot.

This plant is a polyploid mutant discovered by Bill Rotolante in tissue-culture liners of Alocasia 'Amazonica' at Silver Krome Gardens. Its hybrid background traces through Alocasia 'Amazonica', whose parentage is Alocasia sanderiana × Alocasia longiloba 'Watsoniana'.

Compact scalloped foliage

  • Leaves: Thick, dark green blades with strong pale vein definition.
  • Margins: Pronounced scalloping gives the leaf edge a crisp, sharply cut look.
  • Shape: More oval than the classic V-shaped Alocasia 'Amazonica' leaf.
  • Hybrid background: Polyploid mutant from Alocasia 'Amazonica', whose parentage is Alocasia sanderiana × Alocasia longiloba 'Watsoniana'.

Small-pot routine for Polly

  • Light: Give bright indirect light, or use a grow light if natural light is weak. Steady light keeps growth firm and leaf definition clear.
  • Watering: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried and the pot feels lighter. Drain fully so the root zone keeps both moisture and air.
  • Substrate: Use an open aroid mix with bark, coco chips or fibre, perlite, pumice or lava rock, and a small moisture-holding fraction.
  • Pot size: Keep the pot close to the root volume. A container that is too large can hold excess moisture around the rhizome.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 20–28 °C during active growth, and protect the pot from cold windowsills after watering.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps leaves expand cleanly. Air movement is important in cabinets, vitrines and dense plant setups.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly while new leaves are developing. Reduce feeding when growth slows in lower light or cooler conditions.
  • Propagation: Division, offsets or cormels need warmth, gentle moisture and patience until new roots are active.

Margins and roots during decline

  • Soft rhizome: Check for cold, wet substrate and poor drainage. Firm roots and an airy mix matter more than frequent watering.
  • Yellow lower leaves: One older leaf may fade as a new one develops. Several yellowing leaves together usually point to wet roots, low light or stress after moving.
  • Brown edges: Review watering gaps, dry air, fertiliser strength and heat from lamps or radiators.
  • Pest marks: Fine stippling, dull patches or distorted new growth can indicate spider mites or thrips. Check the undersides and petioles closely.

Handling Polly during leaf cleanup

Alocasia 'Polly' is toxic if chewed. Keep it away from pets and children, and wash your hands after pruning, dividing or handling damaged tissue.

Polly, Poly and the Amazonica line

Alocasia is a New Latin name formed in relation to Colocasia. 'Polly' is also seen as 'Poly', a spelling connected with its polyploid origin from tissue-culture liners of Alocasia 'Amazonica'.

Great for blankets
Great for making sherpa or fur blankets soft again after wash. I imagine it'll work well for fur hoods as well. It did a good job of removing lose hair fibers and the quality is good, even if it's extra spikey. Overall, affordable solution and good looking brush to rejuvenate faux fur

Great but Pain
It’s alright, does the job as it is supposed to. It’s easy to use and helped fix my Uniqlo jacket that was all matted. It didn't restore it to it's original form however it did unmat it. If I bought this way before and touched up the jacket, I think it would of been perfect to this day still. Maintenance of those jackets are a must! The brush is strong and works well for fluffing it up because of the metal wiring. The only bad parts are that it can hurt if you accidentally poke or scratch yourself, I actually got cut by it when I quickly was brushing. It’s kind of hard to get the lint off the brush but it's better than others and might hurt because of the metal. But overall, it’s a cool tool that makes my jacket fluff again!

Works well, however…
Purchased this to give life back to my Sherpa backed blankets. This is a well made brush handle is comfortable. The teeth are strong and durable. They did not bend around while I used it and maintained its shape. The problem I guess I’m seeing is that it doesn’t get deep down into the fabric to it’s just a surface “petting”. Maybe if the teeth were further apart or something. But does seem to provide some form of fluff.

Very useful
Works great on polar fleece. I also use it gently on. My jeans to get rid of dig hair. Speaking of dog hair, I have been known to run this gently over the dog's coat.works great for that too.
