We went to the greenhouse just to look. This is my first alocasia. My husband convinced me to buy it, though he didn’t have to try very hard. I really hope I can keep it thriving.

At LONG LAST…Boa Celestine grew her new leaf🥹❤️😆😄

I think I posted my polly before, as I was so happy to have a new leaf from her. She was trouble from day 1, took me a long time to figure her out!! I almost tossed her several times... long story short, she was repotted recently and I braved propagating the corms... she gave me 6 total. All 6 have rooted, and I've got two sprouted!! This is a first for me!! I've never propagated any thing other than leaf cuttings. I'm so tickled!!

I FOUND A WISH LIST PLANT! The Alocasia ‘Black Velvet’… I found 2 of them at Walmart (of all places), repotted them together. Named one Elvis & the other Sirius. 😄 Any tips on keeping them alive are welcomed & very appreciated. Wish me luck! 🖤

My frydek has put out two beautiful leaves recently — enjoying them while they last! 🤍

Hi! I’m fairly new to alocasia’s and I was wondering if that lightened green edges around the plant (it is the newest leaf that came out about 3-4 weeks ago) is an issue? I’ve already checked it and there don’t seem to be any pest issues but not sure if this is normal or might be an issue? Thanks!

I got this silver dragon alocasia (I think) on sale today because it’s not doing so great. It does have one new leaf though so I have hope. Do you think re-potting, cutting off the dying leaves and some neem oil to the healthy ones could help save it or will that be too much of a shock to the plant?

I FOUND A PLANT FROM MY WISHLIST 💚 the Alocasia Frydek!! I named him Freddy 2 Wishes, for whatever reason he’s Italian 🇮🇹 lol. I’m obsessed with him; any tips on care are soooo appreciated 🙏🏼

Recently got two new Alocasia’s: An Alocasia wentii and Alocasia zebrina. Any advice on how to best care for these babies would be greatly appreciated. The Alocasia zebrina lives in my bathroom with a grow light and the Alocasia wentii is by my window.

What am I doing wrong with this Alocasia Polly? I checked the roots everything looks fine doesn’t need a repot. The soil is moist not soggy it’s under a grow light I have on my plant stand.

Final colocasia arrivals.. that makes 4. Black coral and redemption varietals. Let's see how they survive the next few weeks. It's summer here, there will only be so much that I can control the humidity with fans and windows etc but I can at least protect them from direct light and provide excellent substrate and water lol.

Alright last Frangelica selfie for a while.... The leaf has unravelled and it is gorgeous! I'm sure it will get huge now!

My Alocasia keeps having leaves turn yellowish green/ brown. I have been removing the leaves when this happens. Any advice on how to keep them green and more healthy? It has a new leaf coming in though…it’s by a window too. Soil is same as it was from local store and never repotted.
