This is my very first colocasia, Elephant Ear đ I bought this bulb back in May. Two weeks ago I saw this sprout, and in the past 5 days the leaf has unfurled. It has been absolutely amazing to watch đ€© I am totally in love đ„° There are six more knubs poking out of the soil and I cannot wait to continue to watch this grow!

Am I delusional??? How is my black velvet flowering? Just these last few weeks it got spider mites and I had to cut off 3 leaves leaving only one lonely little guy. I couldâve sworn this guy was close to being done for Donât judge my little name tags lol

Just looking to get some opinions on my Bambino. To me she looks wilty and also has a ton of growth now. Still in the original nursing pot. I donât know if I should repot with some chunkier soil ? The roots are not really coming out yet but she just doesnât look super happy right now and her soil has been taking kind of a while to dry out. Any pointers would be appreciated as Iâm pretty new to the having a green thumb thing.

Hi guys. I bought this plant from Trader Joeâs a few weeks ago and the soil it was in was god awful so I repotted it and is has slowly lost all of its leaves and I thought maybe it was going to lose just the smaller ones but now itâs losing a bigger one. Any tips? Is the whole plant going to die? Will it come back? Thanks!

In June I switched to semi-hydro with this Alocasia Wentii in a last ditch effort to encourage some more growth. I was just about to throw in the towel when I spotted this. I was so excited and relieved I may have actually âgaspedâ! đ

My silver dragon is very happy and pushing a new leaf. Sheâs got roots coming from the pot - do I repot or just try to take her out of the pot and place the roots back in? I feel like sheâs got more room in the pot for roots.

I need some advice for my Tiny Dancer. She went through a time where she was down to just about 2 healthy leaves. I repotted with better soil (chunky mix), and checked the roots. She perked up a bit and I was starting to have 5-6 healthy leaves at a time. Recently sheâs starting to lose more leaves than sheâs gaining again. I have her under a grow light (not much natural light in my house) set at 12 hr/day, wait till sheâs pretty dry on top to water, and use liquid fertilizer as recommended on Planta. Any advice? Pictures of the current leaves and a couple I pruned off today.

So I went to Bjs to buy food came out with this plant that was screaming for me to buy it. What kind of Alocasia is this? Is it a jewel? I cut the blooms off.

Kitchen hack!!! Decided to use a cake display dome for my baby Alocasia Korms and it works like a charm! Keeps the humidity in. I remove the top occasionally and use a paper towel to crack the space to let some air in!

Just wanna share my excitement that not just one, or even two, but THREE of my alocasiaâs are pushing out new growth. First two are my rescue ones (Silver Dragon & Cuprea) and the third is my sweet baby princess (Black Velvet) the very first Alocasia and first plant I brought home. This will be her 12th leaf!!!!! The most leaves Iâve ever had at one time. I am just so proud đ„č đ€
