Can elephant ears be propogated? Feel like I just made up a word. lol. I’ve read different things and get mixed reviews. I want to know if has anyone actually tried it and has had success. My big plant that I've had since last July is dying and I feel like it's only a matter of time before it's too late so I wanted to try to save one of the leaves if possible. Thanks in advance!

Hello! My elephant ear I bought about a month ago… one the leaves is started to turn yellow and droop. The other ones look like it’s turning as well. I originally had it next to a large window but moved it to a lower light area… What should I do? Help!

I need some help identifying this Alocasia! The app thinks it’s an elephant ear (alocasia wentii), the leaves just looked a little more pointy to me than most elephant ears I’ve seen. This was dying in my local Lowe’s, but after cleaning it up some leaves are really gorgeous! First alocasia so any tips & tricks are recomended. I haven’t watered or repotted since bringing home, it’s in peat moss nursery special potting. I’ve got it in quarantine with lots of windows and my aquarium lights and it seems to be perking up!

Wanted to share; I’m liking how this little setup has worked so far. ~Alocasia Silver Dragon~ 🐉

My Frydek put out a pure white leaf I had to cut, its oldest leaf just died so I had to cut it off too. Luckily I see a new leaf with green coming in but I decided to cut a plastic cup to fit over it to boost its humidity while it’s going through this tough time.

Are these corms too premature? To propagate..

I can’t tell if my baby is becoming translucent due to temperature or needing a repot? It’s watered correctly, but has not been fertilized yet since I got her in November. She has grown a lot!

Hello! Is this a root that is too shallow? It’s essentially on the surface.

The “new” leaf on my Polly has looked like this for 6 weeks! Could the plant be dormant? Would that happen while in the middle of growing a new leaf? It currently has three great leaves. Any ideas why the new growth is stunted like this?

my first alocasia polly 🤞🏻 i know these can be hard, any tips or tricks are appreciated!!

Curling on one side…? Does anyone know if this is light, water, humidity, or potentially being a newer leaf?

The one leaf left on my Alocasia Hilo died and while moving the body to the graveyard I found this.. so is the plant dormant or dead?

Please help! I got this Alocasia (I believe it’s a nebula) brand new roughly three weeks ago, I’m very new to plants so it’s in its nursery pot which has drainage, but roughly a week after bringing it home the tips of the leaves started to brown a little, I thought maybe it was just stress or something and I didn’t want to rush into anything. But it’s been a week and a bit now and it has progressed significantly and is now on another leaf too. All my other plants are doing really well and are showing no signs of this same thing so I don’t think it’s a fungus or something. Honestly I’m lost, please if anyone can give me some tips on how to care for it, and try to save it. I water it roughly every week and a bit when the soil goes dry on the top inch or so, I haven’t yet fertilised it since buying, tbh I’m following Planta’s advice with the fertilising, it’s in a south facing window the sunlight doesn’t actually go any higher than that but is in the room all day so I don’t think it’s been burnt and I’ve been misting it daily as I’m thinking it might be humidity as my room is quite dry but the Calathea next to it is thriving giving out big new leaves so idk. Someone please help me try to save it. P.S. I’m kinda broke so was hoping not to have to buy a Humidifier if humidity is the issue but if that’s the case then so be it.

It’s so cool to watch this unfurl! It totally surprised me. 😍

My alcoasia black velvet has definitely fallen ill. I repotted to a pot with better drainage and I thought she was getting better with this new growth but this white chalky thing just came out instead of a new leaf 😅 does anyone have any idea what is going on? New to plants…

Hi all. I got this alocasia melo over the weekend. Any idea why its leaves are turning limey green/yellow? Thanks!

I’m in the process of transitioning my alocasia polly to leca and I found a bunch of corms while repotting! Any tips for propagation?

First time posting! I just wanted to share all my babies living in leca!
