My black velvet currently has a flower thatâs opened, another that is opening within the next week, and a new leaf (not sure why its so happy but Iâm not complaining!). My question is⊠How long do people wait to cut off the flower? Iâm not looking to cut them before they bloom. Theyâre weird and they stink but Iâm loving them. But once they have, do you just let it die naturally? Or cut it off at a certain point?
Hi! Wondering if I should be trimming the brown/dead/old leaves off of my Alocasia? Theyâre also very wet, I thought it was for overwatering but Iâve refrained and theyâre still very wet. Also also, anyone know what kind of Alocasia this is?
I love her đ it was a small sprout in July!
Look at this beautiful alocasia dragon breath, itâs so bushy and is putting out so many new leaves!!
Hi there⊠I am very new to Sphagnum moss. Wondering if you need to change it? Does it get moldy if left in the same moss?Also new to this plant. Started these from a corm and wondering if these grow slow⊠They seem to be at a standstill..
Does anyone know what is going on with my plant
I got this pink princess a couple months ago. I was too eager to repot her and thought I for sure damaged her. Sheâs been living in my ikea greenhouse⊠just returned from 5 days away and LOOOK AT THIS NEW GROWTH đ€©đ€©
Hello all I just got an Alocasia and was told its low maintenance just to find out from my research that it is NOT so if anyone has ANY TIPS or RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE HELP Iâve never owned this kind of plant or any tropical plant before
This new growth has grown RAPID, like I mean in the past 3-4 days this thing just sprung up
Help!! These are dyeing and I donât know why
PRETTY BABY PRETTY BABY, alocasiaâs are now one of my favs, Iâve got it in a general houseplant potting mix BUT when spring comes imma repot it into an aroid soil? Not sure of the spelling but YEAH. Iâm also propagating some corns I unapologetically stole from it. Do yâall have any big leafy pretty alocasia recommendations? đ€
Platinum Bisma sizing up nicely since I got her in July
Just here to prove that not all peat pods are death plugs! I decided to repot my polly into a chunkier mix and noticed it had the so called "death plug" aka peat pod seed starter. And while not many roots were growing in it, it was home to 6 baby corms đ„°. The remaining two corms were off of the main healthy root system. Now I suspect the manner in which corms grow allowed for this plug not to restrict root growth or encourage root rot, but that's just my speculation. Fingers crossed these babies do their thing! đ€đœ happy planting đ±
I can officially call myself an Alocasia aficionado now that my extremely happy (has put out 3 new leaves this week) Silver Dragon has put out a flower (it has not fully bloomed yet). Anyone else have their indoor Alocasias bloom?! Any tips?! Iâm thrilled
Does anyone own a Velvet Elvis? I just received mine.
