Does anyone know what plant this is? I thought it was part of the alocasia family and i took a few cuttings from outside and tried to keep them in some water inside and they’re dying and not growing roots. can it not grow inside?

Just picked up this golden bone starter plant and she’s my first Alocasia! Any tips?

I'm being gaslit into thinking that these white spots are dust, mineral buildup or natural leaf coloration instead of pests, and I need to confirm with the council again. Its so tiring to find these spots again after trying so much stuff. TIA!

Love these little guys 🥹 grown from corms 🌱 not all them have made it but super happy with the survivors lol

This is the Pink Dragon that I brought home in December. It has held onto this one leaf until yesterday when I noticed it was starting to yellow. The roots still look really healthy. My question is, how do I know if my plant is dying vs. going dormant? I know that alocasias also tend to “cycle” when adjusting to a new home. Could that be what’s going on here? Let me know what you think!

Sooo… my acacia frydek gave me 3 corms! I’m gonna try my hand at growing these. Any tips would be amazing! This is the first time I’ve attempted this. They are currently under a grow light in a glass container with spag moss and a small amount of water and plastic wrap over it.

Hi everyone, I hope I'm on the right thread for my angel wing. Not sure what family it is in. If I am, I hope someone can help. Am I over watering? It was beautiful when I got it a couple months ago. It's still in the pot, I bought it in. Any suggestions?

Super cool variegation pattern on the new leaf of my Dragon Scale

Finally took care of my alocasia elephant ear! Bought this guy reluctantly from the clearance section, covered in tiny white pests (I suspected spidermites, because of what looked like little white webs in the leaf crevices), and with a lot of damaged leaves. Now after some acclimating time went to repot this guy and found out there were two of them in there! And a bunch of corms too! Sprayed thoroughly with insecticide, hoping they will recover and we'll be able to move them from quarantine to meet the rest of the plant fam:)🌿🪴🌱 (also, any tips for propagating alocasia corms in wet cotton wipes?? Is it better to do it in water or straight in soil ? I've had a lot of success with wet cotton wipes, but any advice would be amazing!! Thanks guys:)

I'm pretty new to Alocasias but from what I've read, they spread through corms? So I have one on one shelf and another on a different shelf. Neither are touching. How in the world did I end up with two babies in a third pot? Again, not touching the other two. They're all on different shelves. I'd appreciate any insight.

Does anyone else have this Alocasia I’m surprised it lasted this long i forget about him all the time and hardly water him and he seems to be pushing out new leaves. Should i cut the old ones ?

Follow up. Here is a photo of the mother plant before it started losing stems. It goes outside in part shade during spring and summer. Last summer it grew a flower for the first time in 4 years I have had this plant.

Please help with my baby zebrina. I separated this from the mother plant last summer. I follow.planta schedule but this leaf will mot uncurl. And top soil feels damp. I will show you photo of the baby and the mother plant. The mother plant has lost almost all stems but for one. Thanks.
