# My alocasia cuprea is gifting me with a bloom! I rescued this one…

_Posted by Chantal on 2023-10-27_

My alocasia cuprea is gifting me with a bloom! I rescued this one from a grocery store, along with another that only lives on through a corm, and I’m so happy to see it thriving! I know many people recommend cutting the blooms off but I have plans for this one! I’ll be saving the pollen to use if my black velvet ever blooms to hopefully create a hybrid!
