ALOCASIA ‘MAANFAH’

Hybrid

Alocasia ‘Aurora’ x Alocasia ‘Lukiwan’

PARENTAGE: Alocasia ‘Aurora’ x Alocasia ‘Lukiwan’

HYBRIDIZER: Wirachai Sukkwan (วีระชัย สุขขวัญ), a Thai hybridizer from Bangkok created Alocasia ‘Gold Magnet’ in late 2025

DESCRIPTION: Wirachai is still growing the hybrid out, but initial observations remind of an all green Alocasia ‘Aurora’.

The hybrid name ‘Maanfah’ (Thai: ม่านฟ้า) meaning “sky curtain” or “veil of the sky” is a compound of maan (ม่าน) — curtain, veil — and fah (ฟ้า) — sky
