Alocasia Corazon
Alocasia Corazon, scientifically known as Alocasia heterophylla 'Corazon Aquino', also known as Alocasia Corazon Aquino, is a distinctive and elegant plant named in honour of the former Philippine President, Corazon Aquino. This cultivar is celebrated for its unique foliage, which differs notably from its close relative, Alocasia Dragon's Breath. The 'Corazon' features broader leaves with rounded lobes, creating a more heart-shaped appearance. These leaves possess a striking leathery texture and exhibit a metallic, bluish-green hue that enhances their visual appeal. In contrast to the more angular, dragon-like leaves of 'Dragon's Breath', the 'Corazon' presents a softer, more rounded silhouette, making it a superb choice for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate unusual and architecturally interesting plants.
