I rescued this plant over a year ago. I never had an Alocasia before, but since Lowes had it in the trash, I figured why not try (plus, free plant!). It has been a learning curve... the leaves have melted away more than once from me overwatering, and it has grown back each time and forgiven me. However, at one point every single leaf died away, and I was worried that was going to be the end. I left it outside in the OR summer with my wife occasionally watering it. seeing how well it did without me really made me excited. Its cold outside, and I had to move it back in. It is reaching for the window, but Im trying to be more careful now. Any advise on this monster, I would really appreciate!!
