The Alocasia 'Calidora', also known as Elephant Ear 'Calidora', is a herbaceous perennial hybrid from the Araceae family. This tropical plant is prized for its massive, attractive, and very tropical-looking leaves. It brings a spectacular touch and majestic allure to any interior or garden during the warm season.

Key Features

  • Foliage: Very large, glossy, bright green leaves, arrow-shaped and strongly ribbed.
  • Habit: Upright and erect, with clusters of long stems, forming a very attractive and imposing vase-shaped silhouette.
  • Growth: Moderate.
  • Care: Moderate to high. Requires specific light, water, and temperature conditions to thrive.
  • Appeal: Primarily cultivated for the impressive size and very tropical appearance of its foliage, which makes it a striking focal point.

Care Tips

  • Light: Prefers bright indirect light or dappled/partial sunlight. Avoid intense afternoon direct sun that can scorch the leaves. Indoors, place it near a bright window but protected from direct rays.
  • Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil moist but well-drained. The soil should never be waterlogged to prevent root rot. Reduce watering in winter.
  • Soil: Plant in a well-aerated and well-drained 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 high humidity conditions, with humidity above 50%, ideally over 60%. A humidifier or grouping with other plants can help.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures, ideally between 18°C and 29°C (65°F to 85°F). It is sensitive to cold and should never be exposed to temperatures below 10°C (50°F). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
  • Fertilization: Fertilize every 1 to 2 months in spring and summer with a balanced fertilizer. Reduce fertilization and watering in winter.
  • Pruning: Pruning is not strictly necessary, but old or damaged leaves can be removed to maintain aesthetics and redirect the plant's energy.
  • Propagation: Primarily by division of offsets.
  • Repotting: Repot every 2 to 3 years, or when the plant is root-bound, in spring. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage holes.

Caution: Alocasia 'Calidora' is considered toxic (moderate toxicity) to humans and pets if ingested. All parts of the plant (flowers, fruits, leaves, roots, sap/juice, stems, seeds) contain calcium oxalate crystals that can cause painful irritation of the lips, mouth, tongue, and throat after chewing; difficulty speaking; nausea and diarrhea, vomiting, delirium, and death. Contact with the sap can also cause dermatitis. Handle with extreme caution and keep out of reach of children and animals.

Perfect size, high quality
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
I had a previous catch all tray that I bought on amazon, it used buttons on the 4 corners to turn a flat cardboard into a tray. Over time, the catch all tray got filled up, not just with a wallet, keys and eyeglasses but eventually business cards and other knick knacks. With all the items inside the tray, sometimes the buttons would start to pop out. It wasn't awful, more of an annoyance. But it was time for me to find a more durable tray. I looked on amazon and added 6 different trays that had "potential" into my shopping cart. Then I carefully evaluated each one and deleted them out of my cart until there was only one left. Some had multiple compartments. Some were larger than this one. I felt the ones with compartments would limit my ability to put the things I want in there. Also, I didn't want it so big that it took up too much desk space. Ultimately, I felt this was the perfect size. I'm extremely happy with it, the quality is really nice and it looks and feels durable. No more loose buttons and spilled knick knacks.

Keeps clutter away
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
This works great to corral all my notes I write on post its or small notes. Keeping them hidden from the desk top b/c or the depth but still visible to me. Much better than keeping on the plotter. Looks great in quality .

Attractive, Simple, And Well-Made
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
I use this as a "catchall". A place to stash things like my wallet and keys when I enter the door, so that I don't use them (I had been prone to that!). It serves it's purpose well. It's both sturdy and attractive, and a good size for a "catchall". Recommended for those like me who need such things.
