In this video, Logee's horticulturist and third generation owner, Byron Martin, shows you how to divide a large aroid into separate plants.

Aroids are from the Araceae family of flowering plants, and include many common houseplants such as alocasias, monsteras, philodendrons and pothos. Plants in the Aroid family have become quite popular in recent years, especially the Alocasia ‘Frydek’ (Alocasia hybrid).

‘Frydek’ makes an outstanding potted plant for the home or garden. The mature, broad, velvety black leaves have striking white veins making this easy-care plant a real beauty. The juvenile leaves appear as bright lime-green and the pale leaf stems have a purplish jagged banding which adds even more intrigue to this eye-catching species. In our greenhouses, it has shown itself to be a strong grower resisting many of the winter decline issues that other Alocasias have.
