Should i repot my dragons breathe? It was fine before but now itās drinking up water like nothing, I gave it a drench yesterday and itās nearly dry again (Iām in winter, and itās not near any heater, also itās in a cabinet and Iām using LED grow lights so no sun is directly on it) could it be the soil is too dense or has it outgrown itās pot?
DRAMA QUEEN ALERT šØ I moved it for 3 DAYS! Because I was renovating my room and look at it šš
Bought this black velvet the other day for 50% off because it looked great and was just really droopy. (The plant store it was in in actually has no windows so I figured it was just from lack of sun) Iāve had it sitting in the sunny window in the day time and in this chair at night under a grow light with it leaves propped up, hoping it will give it the support to get more upright. Any suggestions to help this guy get less droopy? Heās already doing better since I brought it home. Itās actually gone up a bit and had a new growth already. (Daytime picture is when I got it home the other day)
I just ordered an alocasia corm to grow one for the first time! I hope itās not too hard š Of course, I had to dive into the deep end with a variegated frydek corm lol. Iāve grown several colocasia and caladiums from bulbs before, but theyāre easier if Iām not mistaken. I failed at an alocasia flying squid in the past, but I blame that on not knowing it had a death mesh š¬ Wish me luck I guess lol š Iām super excited
My dragon scale alocasia BLOOMED!!! Itās the most beautiful flower Iāve ever seen and my proudest achievement as a plant-parent :,)
What are the two āballsā with tips on them growing from the base of my alocasia?
How do you all prevent mildew/mold/fungus from growing in your sphagnum moss container when growing corms?
New here! This may be a silly question but what type of Alocasia is in the title photo? I have the exact one and have been told itās a Sanderiana but that never seemed right for some reason edit: I think it may be a āPseudo Sanderianaā
My frydekās newest leaf. Iām beyond obsessed. **shoutout to my Alocasia odora batik to the left of the frydek** šŖ“š
Help with my Alocasia āJacklynā I've had it for three months and until lately has been fine but it only has this one leaf so I'm worried I'll lose it
Please help. All other leaves have fallen off. How can I save her?
Heyy!! could someone tell me why my alocasia pink dragon has this open dark spot on it which keeps growing??
Got my first Alocasia a few weeks ago. Do these guys like to be root bound at all, or would yāall recommend repotting this guy? I would typically see roots like that and immediately repot. But Iām new to Alocasias. Thanks!
The new leaf looks like a marbled steak from behind XD, itās so pretty tho!
Look how beautiful this leaf is that my alocasia watsoniana rewarded me during the fall season!! I made the second image brighter so yāall can see the beautiful patterns. My alocasia dragon breath is also putting out some new leaves for me š¤
I brought this plant a week ago and sudden heās just gone brown and wilting ! What do I do?
My Alocasia Frydek is pretty droopy a couple weeks after purchasingā¦ should I be concerned?
I brought home and Alocasia Bambino from the grocery store last night (I know, regretting it already!) and I have seen 3 bugs in my office today š© Does anyone know what this is? I repotted it immediately into my Mollyās mix. It had plugs. At this point Iām worried about my other plants more than this surviving.
This needed TLC. I repotted it, took out some dead leaves, cut the roots back. It suffered from being rootbound and not enough water. I told the cashier Iāll save it.
My Alocasia nebula š„° got this beauty for $10 today at my favorite nursery
