Needing help. My plant leaves keep getting bigger and then fall and break and I can’t get them to come back and have been cutting them…. I have new ones growing but I need to know what to do with them if they are starting to bend and how to cut it if I’m doing it wrong….

    Are you fertilizing? Alocasia will cannibal itself if it is nutrient deficient. They need a 10-10-10 all year long. At least monthly in the dormant months.

    It may need more light than it’s getting. Also, consider adding a silica supplement for plants which strengthens the cellular structure of the plants. This should help the stems hold up under the weight. 🪴🍀
