Hey yall. Can someone tell me what’s going on with my alocasia? I’ve been doing well with all my plants for a while. This one is throwing me off lol also, the new leaf that opened looks so awesome!

    Sometimes it’s age and sometimes it’s not enough nutrients. During the growing season Alocasias need fed weekly with a 10-10-10 then switch to monthly of the winter. Even then some breeds will drop their oldest leaf when they have a new one based on how old the plant is. If young it will cannibalize the old leaf to feed the new leafs growth.

      Yes this plant is young. Got it a few weeks ago.

      Are you feeding it? If yes then it’s probably just an age thing

    Are you talking about the drooping leaf? If the stem feels fine and you know it’s not needing water, it’s caused by too much light.
