The Alocasia Cucullata, affectionately known as Buddha’s Palm, is a striking tropical plant with a sculptural quality that makes it a favourite among collectors and designers alike. What sets this variety apart is its thick, swollen trunks — reminiscent of bonsai trees — which support a canopy of glossy, heart-shaped leaves that gently sway with the air.

Size
Supplied in a 12cm nursery pot, approx. 40cm tall on arrival. It’s a compact plant with big impact — easy to style on shelves, sideboards, or desktops.

Native Habitat and Growth Patterns
In the wild, Alocasia cucullata grows in the humid, shaded understories of Southeast Asian forests. It clings to life in warm, moist environments, forming a thickened base to store water during dry spells — which is where those unusual trunks come from. The leaf stems rise neatly from the base, creating a natural “fountain” effect that’s both elegant and practical in the jungle and at home.

Styling at Home
Those bonsai-like trunks are begging to be shown off. Try placing your Alocasia Cucullata in a low ceramic bowl or wide planter where its chunky base can take centre stage. It looks fantastic in both modern and traditional interiors — from minimalist apartments to heritage townhouses. It’s especially beautiful when paired with soft-leaved trailing plants or other sculptural forms like Ficus or Dracaena.

Care Requirements
Surprisingly easy-going for an Alocasia:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best. A few hours of morning sun is fine, but avoid harsh afternoon rays.

  • Water: Let the top layer of soil dry out slightly between waterings. Never let it sit in water.

  • Humidity: Loves a humid spot — perfect for bathrooms or kitchens, or mist regularly.

  • Feeding: Feed once a month during the growing season with our Organic Tropical Plant Food to support healthy leaves and trunk development.

Why Choose This Plant
The Alocasia Cucullata brings a sense of peace and order to your plant collection. Its thick base and elegant form feel timeless — like a living sculpture that rewards quiet observation. Whether you’re a bonsai lover or simply after something that feels grounded and meditative, this is a perfect choice.

Interesting Facts

  • In its native Thailand, this plant is often grown around Buddhist temples, where it’s said to bring good luck and calm.

  • The swollen “trunks” act as water reservoirs — an adaptation that makes it more resilient than fussier Alocasias.

Great for pm at the park!
This is alot like Nite Eyez but not as good but if you have never used Nite Eyez you will love this!! I have an am. staff that i take to the park at night so she can run around without the fear of a dog running up on her (she doesn't like that) and this ball is great! Stays lit and changes colors and it she cant destroy it!

Works Great!
This is a new version of an old style that was the best most durable, and long lasting night time balls!!! They stay on long enough for me to find if my lab cant find it. (We have an acre backyard and in ground swimming pool) sometimes I have to retrieve it. Stays on and auto shuts off after inactivity. They ARE waterproof and we play in the pool with them on night swims. My lab is very hard on balls, very few hold hold up to his chomping on them. Great balls!!

not worth the cost
I love these balls for night time ball playing but they dont last. The last 4 Ive bought havent worked well or lasted more than a month. They were once worth the money

Great Idea but they will let you down eventually
I have used these for years during the winter. The price has nearly tripled but the longevity is the same. I normally purchase three with one being a spare. Within a few weeks they start going. I switch batteries etc but normally that does not help. Its a great idea and my dogs love them but they dont hold up to 10 minutes of play each nite. We do not throw them either, I roll them or kick them as my dogs are older
