WILD SPECIESAlocasia longiloba 'Black Satun' Stardust is a trade selection from the longiloba species complex, a group of Alocasia that botanists treat as one variable species. Sellers name it after Satun province in southern Thailand, but no botanical source confirms this origin. Listings describe dark green leaves with fine, starry speckling, shown in white, cream, gold or rose-pink depending on the seller and batch. It is scarce and usually sold as tissue culture plantlets. Give bright, indirect light, high humidity and a free-draining mix. Heavily variegated leaves can brown easily.

Before you buy
Black Satun Stardust is a scarce variegated longiloba selection; always sold variegated, with few sellers and noisy prices.
- Very few sellers carry it — one listing's price is weak evidence of the going rate; shop around.
- There's no plain green version, so verify the pattern is stable rather than a one-off leaf.
