    That is new growth coming from the corms below the soil

      Oh my god ! So she needs a new pot and the corm needs its own pot ?

    You can repot or harvest those corms, but it really depends on how much space your alocasia still has in the pot. If the roots aren’t super crowded, it’s totally fine to leave the corms for now. You can definitely harvest them, but that would require pulling the plant out and fully repotting — and with the time of year we’re in, I’d personally wait until spring. Growth naturally slows down in the cooler months, and repotting now can stress or shock an alocasia. They can be drama queens! What type of Alocasia is she?

    Thank you! I found 2 more after posting this! As long as she still has space I’m gonna leave her be thank you for sharing your advice I greatly appreciate it! Also it’s like 100$ to repot and do everything I need to do for her with the winter coming it’s definitely a little bit tighter!
