Has anyone tried to propagate an alocasia dark star, alocasia cuprea, or an alocasia black velvet? If so, how did you do it?

Recently got this beauty, it came in a “self watering” pot. Any thoughts on that? It seems to be enjoying the self watering as of now.

I bought this colocasia on my birthday last year. It had three leaves. On my birthday today, I’ve just repotted it into a huge 40cm pot as it was very rootbound. I wonder how big it will have gotten by my birthday next year!

anyone know if this is overwatering or just old leaves aging, or something else?

So I have had 2 Alocasias. I feel like each time I’ve tried to clean their leaves it’s caused absolute DEATH to each one. One was a black velvet and the other is a Melo My insecticidal soap: Bronners soap Alcohol Baking soda Hydrogen peroxide Water Are any of these ingredients the issue?? Obviously each ingredient is in moderation. Mostly water. The amount of soap is what it calls for on the bottle which I think is 1 tbsp/ liter. Either way I followed the bottle. Alcohol is about a splash same with peroxide. Baking soda is 1 tsp. Alocasia pros pls let me know what I’m doing wrong or maybe what you do to clean your leaves. Anything helps.

Anyone knows why this Mayan leaf is showing some yellow spots? No bugs to be seen, it just churned out a beautiful new leaf and no webbings too. I also have no idea what’s going on with my brancifolia in the other pic, one leaf is looking amazing and the other leaf is getting droopier by the day.

Someone I know went on a shopping spree 🫣 I swear it wasn’t me! (The dirty leaves have since been cleaned)

I just brought this Alocasia home from the store yesterday. Is there something I should do to help with the transition? I’m completely new to this! Thank you :)

Hi! Quick question: does anyone have an alocasia flying squid and is it finicky? I’ve stayed away from alocasia since I really struggled and killed a silver dragon and dragon scale and a Polly back to back a few years ago. But now I’m eyeing the flying squid. I wanna get one because they’re so goofy looking but I’ve got alocasia ptsd and I’m scared I’ll just kill this too 🙃Someone talk me out of buying it. Or into it 😂

Is this new growth on my alocasia or is it roots ? 😅 also I have her domed off is that ok ? She’s my first ! 😭

Does anyone know what’s wrong with my Alocasia regal shield? I checked for spider mites but I don’t see any. I’m not sure if they are there but I can’t see them or if it’s something else. Thanks!

QUESTIONSSSSSSSSS 1. What’s the best way to get rid of spider mites? 2. I just got an Alocasia albino arrow. What are some tips to keep it alive?

My husband brought this Alocasia home from Lowes yesterday and it’s my first one. I changed the pot and soil, gave it a good wash down with my neem oil/alcohol mix, and set it up away from all my other plants in case it has pests! Since it’s in a rather dark area, I put it under a grow light. Will this be ok for it? I’m not sure how much light it needs.

Brought this little baby home from my office because it lost two of its three leaves. I guess sitting outside the laundry room works for it…new leaf alert!!!

Hi friends, this is my Pink Dragon! I’m new to this but I’ve had it for a couple months and it’s growing really well. I’m starting to notice that there are roots poking out of the drainage holes. should I repot into a pot that is 2” bigger (like usual for most plants) or even bigger than that? TIA!

LOOK AT THAT TEXTURE 🤩🤩 I have been looking to add another alocasia to my collection— Melo being one of them so I couldn’t pass it up!
