It originally had 3 leaves. Dropped down to one. It was doing great, got a new leaf, and bam! The stem is still firm. Normal alocasia thing?

Hi! I just ordered and received this baby Alocasia and she’s not looking very happy - any tips on helping her acclimate? She’s getting enough light and I think the watering is fine, so not sure what to do

Hey everyone, I just got my first Alocasia and I heard that they thrive best in Semi-Hydroponic but I didn’t know if a Tiny Dancer would be the same. Looking for advice and tips please and thank you 🫶🏽

Plant friends, I woke up this morning and I found my alocasia like this. Why? What could it be?

I got my first alocasia last weekend. Are these aerial roots? New roots? New leaves?

uh oh. Did I plant the corm upside down?? And if so, should I plant it back the same way? I have about 10 or 15 corms from different Alocasias in grow boxes n haven’t seen something like this yet.. This guy went into a large clear medicine bottle to grow more because of the roots being so long, I just planted it roots side down - now it’s got a little tail (or neck maybe?) making me second guess myself 🤣 Thoughts, comments, feelings below thank you:)

Hi! My black velvet has flowered earlier this week & i've seen people saying that you should cut them back so it focuses on new leaf growth. Is there a point at which i should do this?

I just got this Alocasia from Harris Teeter a few days ago She was worse for wear but seems to not be worsening, which is nice I thought she was a dragon scale but she doesn’t have those maroon veins on the under leaf I hear about Is it just because she’s young or unhealthy? Or is she something else? I’ve tried looking around and not many other types I’ve seen have really sounded like her The tag only brought me to a site with many plants, the only two looking like here was the Silver dragon and the Dragonscale

Local greenhouse got her in a bulk ship with no label, just an Alocasia. I believe it's a Cuprea, Red Secret....correct me if Im wrong.
