Help please! I went back home from a holiday for 2 weeks and found my Alocacia leaf turning this colour. This happened before for one of its small leaves and died. I noticed it drooped as well. Can’t figure out What’s the problem…last time I watered was before leaving for my holiday and I just measured soil moisture and don’t think it needs watering at the moment. I love this plant so much and I need help keeping it alive 😢

I did this since it had spider mites in the soil. Will it thrive still in just water? I also found a corm. How do I get it to grow?

So this is the first time I’ve ever had an alocasia and I think it might be sunburnt the soil is good and I don’t water too frequently. But I noticed that in front of my grow light they have gotten crispy around the edges should I move the plant to a lower light area?

Three blooms at the same time what does it mean what should I do about them and can they make seeds with themselves?

I have always said to myself that I wasn’t interested in having a regal shield. Until I saw this beast in a garden centre for twenty pounds. Its leaves are nearly twice the size of my head (and I have a big head). Can honestly say it’s one of my favourites! 😍

HELP! My Alocasia Polly has spider mites! I tried circling a bit of the web but it doesn’t show up well on camera. I have never had spider mites so tips and care info will be GREATLY appreciated. I checked all the leaves and it looks like there’s only a web on this new leaf coming up so maybe I caught it early if that’s even possible. TIA!!! 😓

Good morning! I had a alocasia Mickey Mouse infested with spider mites that I ended up cutting off all the leaves 😢😢 would it be best to move him leave him in dirt in an east facing window or transfer him to a substrate and under a grow light? What he looked like prior to the cutting… I cut right at the base right above the dirt.
