I just had to share this beautiful new leaf that unfurled two days ago on my Pink Dragon. It’s HUGE! 10” long x 5” wide! The older two leaves are each 5” long x 3” wide. The plant is 16.5 inches tall. Never has she produced a leaf this big!! It’s crazy! 💚 Also, there’s already a new stem starting. I cut off a dead leaf right before I watered her tonight. If she produces a new leaf, one dies. Every time and almost simultaneously. She never gives without taking away. Is this normal for Alocasia? 🤔 I swear, I can’t tell if this plant hates me or loves me. She’s currently feeling and showing me all the love. But her moods are fickle. Btw, her name is Maleficent and lemme tell ya, IT FITS! 🧙🏻🐉

I got these two black velvets (revert and variegated) as a bonus when i picked up a new bambino. I’ve never had anything so small/tiny/young. Any tips? When can i plant them?

Planta says this is an Alocasia Reginae. Does anyone know why these off white colors spots are forming?

(the white dust is from using a paper towel after spraying) I found some spider mites on my frydek would they be the cause of these spots? I thought I used to much fertilizer or let the water get to low (it’s in semi hydro) since I found the spider mites I’m not sure now

Hi guys! I was wondering if you guys knew what type of Alocasia this is? I tried scanning in the app but it keeps saying its an Alocasia Black Velvet, which I know its now true. It didn’t have a tag when I bought it. I think I’m between elephant ear Morocco or Ivory Coast. Any insight would be helpful!

It was progress day for this one and had to share her soil to semi hydro progress with fellow plant lovers ♥️

Can anyone tell me the kind of alocasia this is ? 😇

What time of plant is this? I think it might be an alocasia but I’m not sure.

Blooms on my Alocasia! That taller one hasn’t opened up yet. I’ll probably snip them soon

I repotted a couple days ago because the soil was becoming hydrophobic and she was quite root bound and now she looks very sad and dying 😭was very perky before i repotted. is there a way to save her???

My alocasia black velvet has put out 4 beautiful leaves in the last 2 months! 🥰 But for the corms that are growing off the parent plant....will they actually right themselves and grow, or do I need to pluck them off and plant them vertically? The other one I removed died within days. Advice? Thank you! 😊

I’ve never noticed these spots on the backs of some of my plant’s leaves! What could this be from? I’ve recently repotted some of my plants nothing else major has happened! Thanks!

Can anyone pleeeasse tell me what I’m doing wrong with my alocasias? 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Several of them have leaves that keep turning this pinky yellow colour and dropping even though other ones next to them are fine? Some are still Giving new growth while also turning 🤷🏼‍♀️ I use a moisture meter to check when they need watering - about once a week - so I don’t think it’s over or under watering. They’re next to a north facing window with a bit of shelter so they aren’t getting full sun. Please please help!

Two month progress photos! From when I got my dragon scale May 28 to July 28! Love this beautiful plant!

Can you guys help me figure these little guy out his use to be so big and green with some burn from the sun. Now he has his leaves back still yellowing and seems to be curled a bit. When I got it I planted him in the ground it was doing ok but slow to grow and getting burned so I potted him in a pot recently. In 3 months I’ll repot in pon. What do you think..? Please help

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.
