It is under the genus Xanthosoma, which is closely related to Alocasia. They are probably misidentified because of the close resemblance between the two genera under the same family. The common name “Mickey Mouse” is due to the attractive shape of the leaf blade of this plant, which closely resembles the famous Disney character of the same name, Mickey Mouse. The Mickey Mouse Alocasia is also known as Mickey Mouse Taro, Mouse Cup, and Pocket Plant. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe word Xanthosoma is Greek and can be broken down into “Zanthos” meaning yellow, and “Soma” meaning body.

Therefore, the Alocasia Mickey Mouse needs plenty of indirect sunlight. This plant does not tolerate direct light very well. If your plant is indoors, keep it in the corner of a well-lit room. If this plant is outdoors, make sure it is shaded by something. If your plant is getting too much light, it will tell you by developing burnt leaves. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGreat for \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFoundation plantings, specimens, mass plantings, commercial landscapes, front or middle of the border, urban gardens, and containers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is a local pickup in the Portland Oregon area only.
