If you start a corm off in soil, can you switch it to hydro once it develops leaves? Or would that kill it since it’s used to soil?

Picked this beauty (in the front) up off the Lowe’s discount rack today. Can’t figure out which variety it is! The tag said it’s an elephant ear, but after looking at photos, nothing really matches. Thanks in advance!

Can yall help me identify these alos? The app says they’re both dragon scale but they look so different. I wasn’t looking for plants today, but i saw them at Walmart for $17. There was no way i was passing them up 😅

Repotted my alo on the 7th and it’s been doing well. I watered on the 15th and made sure the pot/soil drained well before putting it back under my grow lights. I also turn a humidifier on once a day. Today the larger leaf is drooping. Any thoughts? Did i do or not do something? Is Cornelius just being finicky? Does he need support? Am i a fussy plant mom? 😬

Is this an Alocasia Polly or Mandalay?

Just got this last week and not sure how best to care for it! I love it and don't want to hurt it! It looks like the baby leaf coming in is yellowing, what am I doing wrong? I have not repotted it. Just waiting to let it acclimate to my house. And the leaves are dripping at points, that's just the excreted water right?!

Hi all! I have a lil baby Odora Batik that has suddenly started dropping leaves after a new one popped in. No changes in location/humidity/temp, etc. I was reading it normal for immature plants to lose leaves once a new one pops in- is that the case?

Repotted my Alocasia odora today, and ended up finding three cormlets! I’m excited to try my hand at propagating these little nuggets, wish me luck that they grow up as handsome as their dad!

Is this scale? I don’t remember there being so many spots

Hi everyone! I’m new to plants, and oddly have had success with Alocasias so far. I’m obsessed with them at this point😍 My Jacklyn’s growth has been insane🥹 Sunday vs. today Just wanted to share 🤗

Any advice on potting these beauties? They’ve been growing since June and I’m nervous.

I need help with my first Alocasia! I picked him up about two weeks ago, repotted about one week ago. He has a new leaf coming in but he’s already killed his first leaf to the point it fell off. I know that’s kind of what they do when growing new leaves to be able to get enough nutrients but he’s now almost killed a second leaf and almost halfway through the third. The biggest leaf also has a starting spot on it too! I fertilized him last watering. I hope I’m not killing him!

I’m so excited about my A. Macrorrhiza Camouflage!! He’s already unfurling a new leaf! Will the next leaf be as tall as the current tallest one? Just trying to plan space wise!

Good morning plant friends! Does anyone mix their own soil mix for their alocasias/monsteras? If so, what are your ratios? I have an alocasia dawn and a thai constellation and I need to repot. Thanks in advance!

I had to repot my Alocasia Silver Dragon and found these corms. What is the best way to propagate these?

My question: Is the lighter green color on the right side from it not fully hardening yet?? The left one had the same color & eventually went away, this one just seems to be hanging on to it longer. I just want to make sure I’m not giving it too much light.
