Maybe need new soil? Did you check the root system?

#### Vikki replied on 2025-10-21

Yes the roots are fine and got new dirt

How long have you had her? Sometimes with Alocasia they get upset about moves and wont grow leaves while they acclimate. Did it have the leaf damage when you got it? Have you fetilized? It’s hard to give advice without more details

#### Vikki replied on 2025-10-22

I’ve had her for about 5 months now I believe and no leaf damage and yes I have fertilized her

What does the humidity look like? How often are you feeding. Have you repotted in the 5 months you had it?
