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.

Where’s the owners manual?
I really like this. The only drawback is that there is no owners manual!

Clean teeth, smart features, and convenient to use!
I’ve gone through a few electric toothbrushes over the years, and this one stands out mostly because of how practical it is day to day. The cleaning power is solid, my teeth feel noticeably smoother after each use, especially along the gumline. The different modes are useful, I mostly stick to the standard clean mode, but the sensitive option is great when my gums feel a little irritated. The built in UV sanitizing and drying feature is something I didn’t think I needed, but now I appreciate it. It’s nice knowing the brush head isn’t just sitting there wet between uses. The included rinse cup and storage setup make everything feel more organized on the counter, which is a small but real upgrade. Battery life has been reliable so far, and the wireless charging base keeps things simple. It also comes with multiple brush heads, which adds value, especially if you plan to stick with it long term.

Cleans your teeth!
This is my first experience with an electric toothbrush. I was a little confused with how to charge this but you need to take out the cup and plug it into that spot. So it’s nice that it comes with a cup but it does go in the charging spot. The UV disinfectant and dryer is very cool indeed. I can’t tell what the difference is in all the different settings. The toothbrush does a really good job of cleaning and you can feel your teeth clean even for a while after you brush. You should put it in your mouth first before you turn it on or else you’ll spray toothpaste all over the place. Overall this was a good foray into electronic toothbrushing for me. I don’t think it’s the top quality as some of the name brands but it works and gets the job done. I love that it comes with replacement heads.
