I can only hope my young alocasia grows to look like yours! It is perfect!

Some secrets I have for keeping them gorgeous, 1. Fertilizer almost every time I water! They are super heavy feeders 2. BRIGHT indirect light 3. Rotating to keep them from leaning 4. Keeping a humidifier near by 5. Multiple plants in one pot, this helps them look super full and beautiful!

Oh thank you! Appreciate the tip. Do you dilute the fertilizer or no?

I use Jacks all purpose 20-20-20 fertilizer, the instructions say to put 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water for constant liquid feed, I always end up doing a tiny bit less, like I won’t fill the spoon all the way to the top, just to be careful and make sure I don’t burn any leaves!
