Help! My dragon scale seemed perfectly fine earlier, but when I got home from work I noticed that this leaf had completely flopped over. The stem is still firm and it shouldn’t be a watering issue, but I don’t know if it has something to do with the new growth or what.
I find most of my alocasias only like having 2 leaves at a time lol, one sprouts, one dies. Other then that all I can recommend is giving her some extra humidity :)

That happened to mine for a long time, she finally kept a 3rd leaf and gave me 2 blooms

I ended up changing all of my alocasias to pon (semi-hydro) because that’s the only way I can keep them happy and keep them from dropping leaves constantly. Their roots need constant access to both oxygen and water. I’ve also heard people have luck keeping them in a self-watering planter, in very chunky soil. But I haven’t tried that personally.

Light, in my experience they will move their leaves to follow light. They require a bit more light than we think, “indirect bright” is so vague 😂
