Alocasia lauterbachiana ‘Purple Sword’

The Alocasia ‘Purple Sword’ is a bold, architectural beauty with long, narrow leaves that feature dramatic wavy edges and deep purple undersides. Its upright form and sword-shaped foliage give it a striking, sculptural presence — perfect for adding vertical interest and tropical flair to your indoor jungle.

Native to the rainforests of Southeast Asia, this Alocasia brings exotic energy and color contrast that stands out among leafy green plants.
