Description

The Alocasia Odora fills your home with warmth, waving hello each morning with its heart-shaped leaves. This wonderful elephant ear plant creates a tropical retreat indoors with impressive foliage reaching 2 feet long and growing up to 10 feet tall.

The thick, glossy leaves of this East and Southeast Asian native reflect light beautifully.



Care 

Are Alocasia Odora hard to keep?

Once you get your head around a regular care routine, you’ll be fine. Your Alocasia Odora needs bright indirect light, regular humidity, and steady watering. 


What is the best fertilizer for Alocasia Odora?

Your Alocasia Odora will thrive with balanced 20-20-20 liquid fertilizer applied at half strength once monthly during growing season. During winter months, we recommend skipping fertilizer entirely since it naturally slows down its growth and takes a well-deserved rest.


Do elephant ear plants need sun or shade?

Your elephant ear plant loves bright indirect light but needs protection from harsh direct sunlight that can damage those beautiful leaves. Think of it like someone who enjoys bright mornings but prefers staying comfortably shaded during intense afternoon heat.


Where is the best place to put an Alocasia Odora?

The perfect spot for your Alocasia Odora is near east or west-facing windows, where it'll receive plenty of filtered light. Bathrooms and kitchens work wonderfully since it loves the natural humidity from your daily routines (one less thing to worry about)!


How often should I water Alocasia Odora?

Water your Alocasia Odora approximately every two weeks, checking that the top few inches of soil feel dry to the touch first. It prefers soil that stays consistently moist but never soggy—like a well-wrung washcloth that feels pleasantly damp.


How tall do Alocasia Odora get indoors?

A typical Alocasia Odora will grow 3-5 feet tall indoors, but we carry some impressive specimens up to 10 feet tall! It’s substantial enough to create a beautiful centerpiece without completely taking over your living space entirely.


Do Alocasia Odora like to be misted?

Your Alocasia loves regular misting to recreate the humid conditions of its native tropical environment. Misting also helps prevent spider mites while keeping those gorgeous leaves looking healthy and glossy—it's like you’re providing a refreshing spa treatment!


Is Alocasia Odora a good plant for beginners?

Alocasia Odora can work beautifully for beginners ready to learn its specific care needs and maintain consistent routines. Among Alocasia varieties, she's actually quite forgiving.


Pet-friendly?

Alocasia Odora aren't pet-friendly because of the calcium oxalate crystals that can harm our furry family members. We recommend placing this beauty somewhere your pets can admire it from a safe distance but never take a curious nibble.


Are Alocasia Odora poisonous to dogs?

Alocasia Odora can be harmful to dogs, potentially causing oral pain, drooling, vomiting, and throat swelling if eaten. In serious cases, breathing difficulties can occur, so please contact your veterinarian immediately if you suspect your dog has nibbled your plant.


Are Alocasia Odora toxic to cats?

Alocasia Odora can cause mouth irritation, excessive drooling, vomiting, and pawing at the mouth in cats who taste the leaves. We suggest displaying your plant in a location where your feline friends can appreciate its beauty from a respectful distance.


Factoids

Is Alocasia Odora the same as elephant ears?

Alocasia Odora is one type of elephant ear plant, but the term "elephant ears" actually includes different plant families like Colocasia and Xanthosoma too. The main difference is that Alocasia leaves point upward while Colocasia varieties tend to droop downward.


Is Alocasia Odora toxic?

Alocasia Odora contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause mouth and throat irritation in both humans and animals if ingested. We always recommend handling your plant with gloves and keeping it away from children and pets so everyone stays safe.


Does Alocasia Odora clean the air?

Like many houseplants, your Alocasia does help purify the air, but its main gifts are increasing humidity and bringing tropical beauty. Think of it as nature's humidifier with the added bonus of stunning visual appeal (another reason to love it)!


Do elephant ears bloom?

Elephant ear plants produce fragrant flowers that bloom at night, although this doesn’t happen often indoors and mainly with mature plants. If you're lucky enough to witness blooms, you'll be treated to a fragrance that makes staying up late worthwhile!

Poor product
Blade was not sharp enough to remove hair. The raggedy blade scratched and but my face. Very disappointed. My granddaughter had a different brand of this item and it was so smooth removing the hair.

I absolutely loved this book.
Format: Paperback
“This book is about creativity, based on histories of contemporary people who know about it firsthand. It starts with a description of what creativity is, it reviews the way creative people work and live, and it ends with ideas about how to make your life more like that of the creative exemplars I have studied. There are no simple solutions in these pages and a few unfamiliar ideas. The real story of creativity is more difficult and strange than many overly optimistic accounts have claimed. For one thing, as I will try to show, an idea or product that deserves the label ‘creative’ arises from the synergy of many sources and not only from the mind of a single person. It is easier to enhance creativity by changing conditions in the environment than by trying to make people think more creatively. And a genuinely creative accomplishment is almost never the result of a sudden insight, a lightbulb flashing on in the dark, but comes after years of hard work.” ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi from Creativity Creativity with a capital C—the type of Creativity that changes the world. How can we go about cultivating it in our lives? That’s what this book is all about. Our guide is Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi—one of the founders of the positive psychology movement. Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced “cheeks sent me high”) is a professor at Claremont Graduate University and the former Chair of the Department of Psychology at the University of Chicago who wrote the classic book Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience . This book features the wisdom gained from over three decades of research along with over one hundred interviews with extraordinary people—from scientists and business leaders to artists and poets. Warning: Although deeply insightful, it’s not an easy read. If you’re looking to understand creativity at a deeper level via one of the world’s leading (and legendary) psychologists then I think you’ll enjoy it as much as I did. Here are some of my favorite Big Ideas: 1. What is Creativity - Domain + field + person. 2. Attention - + Being kind weird 3. Complexity - + Resolving dischotomies. 4. Rhythms - Your ideal days? 5. Creativity + Flow - The 9 elements Well, there we go. That’s a super quick look at this great book. Time to get our flow on as we tap into our Creativity and optimize + actualize! More goodness— including PhilosophersNotes on 300+ books in our ​*OPTIMIZE*​ membership program. Find out more at brianjohnson . me.

5 Stars – A Must-Read for Anyone Interested in Creativity!
Format: Paperback
Creativity: The Psychology of Discovery and Invention* by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi is a brilliant exploration of the inner workings of creativity and the human mind. Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or simply someone interested in understanding how creative breakthroughs happen, this book provides a fascinating blend of psychology, real-world examples, and deep insights. What sets this book apart is its comprehensive approach to creativity, going beyond the idea of it being a mysterious or innate trait. Csikszentmihalyi breaks down the creative process into digestible parts, showing how environment, discipline, curiosity, and flow all play a crucial role in fostering creative discovery. The interviews with a wide variety of highly creative people—including scientists, artists, and business leaders—add incredible depth and context to his theories. One of my favorite takeaways is how Csikszentmihalyi emphasizes the balance between freedom and structure in creative work, and how finding the "flow" state can lead to moments of true innovation. The book not only helped me better understand my own creative process but also offered practical advice for cultivating creativity in everyday life. This is an insightful, inspiring read for anyone who wants to dive deeper into the psychology behind creative genius. Highly recommend!

Personal Creativity does not equal Domain Transformation
This was a good if not a great book. Its greatest strength lies in the thesis introduced early on and supported throughout that the kind of creativity that leaves a trace in the cultural matrix rests not in the personal creativity of the individual, but in what Csikszentmihalyi tags the "systems approach " to creativity. To have any effect, a creative idea must be couched in terms that are understandable to others, pass muster with the experts in the field (i.e. the gatekeepers to the domain), and be included within the cultural domain (the set of symbolic rules or procedures) to which it belongs. In this systems view, the definition of a creative person is someone whose thoughts or actions change a domain or establish a new domain (pp. 27-28). This is no easy task, especially since he or she needs to learn the existing domain or domains first, and almost always necessitates being in the right place at the right time (e.g. studying quantum physics at the beginning of the 20th century or women seeking academic opportunities when WWII broke out). Having established this in the first 30 pages, if you didn't read the remaining 350 you wouldn't miss much. But I still enjoyed reading the stories and thoughts of selected individuals whom the author deemed as "creative" according to the definition above (However, I disagreed with the selection of a few of these and would have chosen at least one more person of faith in addition to the Quaker who was briefly highlighted. Also on the issue of faith, I found the author's grouping on page 371 of studying the bible with addictive behaviors such as cruising the internet and betting on horse races to be rather laughable!). Some additional personal nuggets I gleaned from this book include the following: 1. Those who persevere and succeed must be creative not only in their manipulation of symbols but maybe even more in shaping a career and a future for themselves that will enable them to survive while continuing to explore the strange universe in which they live (p. 199). 2. When seeking to allow your mind to make new connections in a beautiful setting, just sitting and watching is fine, but taking a leisurely walk seems to be even better. The shaping of one's personal space is also important. The Greek philosophers settled on the peripatetic method, preferring to discuss ideas walking up and down in the courtyards of the academy. When we participate in this kind of "semiautomatic activity" that uses a certain amount of attention, we allow the rest of it to be free to make connections among ideas, often from different domains, well below the threshold of conscious intentionality. "Devoting full attention to a problem is not the best recipe for having creative thoughts. "(p. 138) 3. Both creativity and innovation on the one hand and conservation and traditionalism on the other are both equally important. "Neither uncritical acceptance nor wholesale dismissal of human creativity will lead us far. " (p. 322) The final section deals with how to enhance personal creativity. Some of these ideas were helpful (e.g. to seek to be surprised and to seek to surprise another person at least once every day, to seek to look at problems from multiple perspectives instead of assuming you see the issue clearly from one perspective, etc.) but others just seem to be taking up space on the page. I'm afraid the phraseology of how to use psychic energy more effectively on page 356 and a few other places lost my interest almost completely.

interesting analysis of what 'being creative' really means
This easy-to-read absorbing book is based on lengthy interviews with 91 creative individuals ranging from Nobel prize winners to artists to CEOs. Csikszentmihalyi starts by debunking the myth of 'the lone genius having a brilliant idea as if by magic' and defines three necessary ingredients for creativity ('with a capital "C"') - domain, field, and individual. Creativity must take place within a recognised domain (such as physics, painting and so forth); be recognised by experts in that domain (the field, although this may not happen in the individual's lifetime, eg, Van Gogh); and of course come from an individual, although he also adds the painstaking work that precedes and insight, the reality that all creativity builds on what has gone before, and the social elements of the creative process. The book also offers supporting evidence from the lives of the 91 interviewed, which also provides interesting insights into their lives. In many ways, this book is a biography of the creative individual. Also contains a chapter with quite practical guidance on how to live more creatively. Prescient advice for a book published in 1996 given the increasing profile creativity is getting in business and public life. HIghly recommended, one of the most interesting learning experiences i have had in a long while!
