The Alocasia 'Regal Shield', also known as Elephant Ear 'Regal Shield', is a popular hybrid resulting from the cross between Alocasia odora and Alocasia reginula. Created by LariAnn Gardner of Aroidia Research, this tropical plant is prized for its massive leaves and dramatic dark colours. It brings a striking touch of exoticism and a majestic appearance to any interior.

Key Features

  • Foliage: Large, thick, and glossy leaves, deep dark green on top. The underside of the leaves displays rich shades of purple with very contrasting light green veins, giving it a regal appearance. Leaves can reach a considerable size.
  • Habit: Upright and erect, forming an impressive silhouette. Can reach 30-90 cm (1-3 feet) in height indoors.
  • Growth: Moderately vigorous, takes a few years to reach its mature size.
  • Care: Moderate, requires warm temperatures and consistent humidity.
  • Appeal: Primarily cultivated for the size and dramatic colour of its foliage, which is a true focal point.

Care Tips

  • Light: Prefers several hours of bright indirect light. Can tolerate medium light conditions. Indoors, it can even handle a bit of direct light as glass diffuses harsh sunlight slightly. Outdoors, it's best to keep it away from intense direct sun to prevent leaf burn.
  • Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but not soggy. The substrate should be damp like a wrung-out towel, not dripping wet. Allow the top of the soil to dry slightly before watering again to prevent root rot. Not drought tolerant.
  • Soil: Plant in a chunky, well-draining potting mix, rich in organic matter, that retains some moisture. An aroid mix (such as equal parts coco coir, perlite, and orchid bark) is ideal.
  • Humidity: Thrives in warm and humid conditions, with humidity above 50%, ideally over 60%. A humidifier or grouping with other plants can help.
  • Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 18°C and 27°C (65°F and 80°F). Does not tolerate frost; must be brought indoors when nighttime temperatures drop below 15°C (60°F). Avoid cold drafts.
  • Fertilization: Benefits from regular fertilization during the growing season. Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month from early spring to late summer. Stop fertilizing when growth slows in the fall.
  • Pruning: Pruning is not mandatory, but tidying up old, yellowed, or damaged leaves is advisable to redirect the plant's energy to new growth.
  • Propagation: By division of offshoots (baby plants) or by corms (small bulbs) that form at the base of the mother plant.

Height and Width (Estimates)

  • Height: Up to 1-3 feet (30-90 cm) indoors.
  • Width: Up to 1-2 feet (30-60 cm) indoors.

Caution: Plant considered mildly toxic to humans and pets if ingested. Handle with caution.

A Spa-tacular Addition to My Bathroom Oasis!
Size: 24in-Shelve
Perfect Statement Piece for My Spa-Like Bathroom! I know this review is super delayed~I’ve been living out of the country, and only just got around to installing this beautiful shelving unit. But wow, it was worth the wait! I hung it in my bathroom above the jacuzzi tub where I have vaulted ceilings and a skylight, and it fits perfectly. It adds the perfect industrial-chic touch I was looking for. I use it to store all my bath oils, salts, and candles, and it’s transformed the space into a relaxing, elevated sanctuary. The quality is fantastic and it was easy to install. Honestly, it looks like something out of a spa catalog. Highly recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their bathroom with both function and style!

Great deal for the money, look sharp, and very sturdy
Size: 32in-Shelves, Size: 32in-Shelves
I was looking to create pipe shelves in our living room. After spending some time researching prices for pipe and wood, I determined that I would save money by buying a couple sets of these shelves. When the shelves came in, I was happy to learn that they were indeed good quality and easy to assemble. They come with mounting hardware, but I’d recommend better mounts for the walls than the ones supplied. Overall, I love the look of these shelves. The wood is described as reclaimed, but it’s pretty much cheap, light wood with a stain. They still look good and are sturdy. The pipes has some silver paint brushed on them to give them a distressed look. I thought it was actually a little cheesy looking, but I happened to have iron-colored spray paint, so I just respirated them.

Looks good but the wall anchors is TRASH!
Size: 3-tier shelves, Size: 3-tier shelves
The product is heavy and sturdy once you get it up completely. The issue I have is with the instructions... 1. The 5/16 drill bit is recommends is WAY TO BIG. The Anchors it comes with will slip right through. The screws that is comes with are WAY TO SMALL for the weight. I recommend getting better ones from the hardware store and painting the screws black for better aesthetics. 2. The instructions say to put it together first then hang it on the wall. That is great so you can see where you want to place it and because it is actually bigger than it looks, but you will need to de-assemble it from the bottom shelf down after you mark where you want to place it, then put that part on the wall, then reassemble it from there, securing the top part to the wall last. The instructions sucked but that is what worked best for me. Another thing is when you first assembling it, you will notice that you will have to unscrew it a bit so the pipes can fast the correct way. This will make it feel flimsy, but it will tighten up when you secure it to the wall. Also, like some people said in previous reviews, some of the black paint did peel off the pipes, not to much for me but it was noticeable if you look at it hard enough.
