# So these are my first two alocasias - Silver dragon and Reginae - and…

_Posted by OKC Pot Head Realtor on 2024-04-03_

So these are my first two alocasias - Silver dragon and Reginae - and each has one leaf that is bending/folding the “wrong way”… I think? Is this normal for them to do this? Both plants seem to be happy and healthy (minus a couple little places on the tips of the leaves), but if they shouldn’t be doing this, what do I do to help correct it?

When a new leaf comes they lose an old leaf. It may just be the old ones on their way out. Alocasias are tricky and I’m still trying to figure them out lol. They love humidity and don’t like their soil to dry out
