They’re beautiful plants but kinda bratty! They like to drop leaves when stressed. I’ve learned to not let the soil completely dry out before watering, just the top layer :)

Light and water are my secret to success 🤭

They like a chunky soil mix, bright light, warm temperatures and I actually let my alocasias dry out (especially in the winter) but water at your own discretion.
