I need major help with my pink dragon alocasia đŸ„Č ever since I’ve gotten her, she’s slowly started having her leaves droop and turn yellow, idk what she needs!! I’m going to cut the yellow leaves off, but she’s potted in leca, she’s placed in my little greenhouse with high humidity, and she has grow lights directed towards her. Please help đŸ„č

Hi everyone! I am pretty new to plants and I have this Alocasia that I think I need some help with. I got her last week, her name is Barbara. Still in her nursery pot, there aren't any roots coming out the bottom so I don't think I need to repot. But one of her leaves is brown and smaller than the rest, and I was wondering if anyone could give me tips? Otherwise she has two healthy looking leaves, and a new one coming in.

My alocasia dawn pushed out an all white-ish leaf! I think it’s cool, but should I be worried Cornelius is telling me he’s gonna die?

Hi all, When growing your Corms, do you keep them open to the air or covered to retain moisture? The ones I had covered with a grow dome were showing signs of mold so I took the lids off & wiped away the mold. Since then I’ve seen no change or progress. All guidance appreciated đŸ€—

I’m so happy with my beautiful elephant ear! I’ve had it nearly a year and it’s gone from three leaves to six 😊

All of my alocasias are starting to flower at the same time 😳 what are the odds?!

Does anyone have a tried-and-true soil recipe for alocasias? So far I’ve used a potting soil with extra perlite added but I’m considering trying something new, maybe with orchid bark (?). Thanks in advance!

Follow up: I ended up cutting off the sickly leaf and now I have one DRY brown green leaf left. However
in one of the shafts, there looks to be a THIN stingy material. Does this look like a potential growth for a new leaf? I really hope so cuz I bought another green scale alocasia, so I can have it to help cope while this one diesđŸ„șđŸ„ș😭 (it can be hard to see so that’s why I circled) I’m unfamiliar to process of how a new alocasia grows since it has thicker leaves.

I have a juvenile colcasia mojito, and need enlightenment please.. I have read that it is normal for colcasias and alocasias to drop a leaf when they put out a new one, at what point does that stop or at least slow down..

Hey everyone! I have two black velvet corms sat in perlite. I was wondering does adding cutting of pothos help corms grow like it can with cuttings or does it not work in the same way? Thank you

I bought this Polly 2 weeks ago and have only watered it once. I let it drain for about 45 mins, and is in a well lit area. The substrate feels mostly like coco coir and it is still wet even though it’s been 9 days since watering. Can someone tell me what’s wrong with my plant baby?
