How do I get new growth? A few weeks ago I had received this gageana aurea alocasia and most of plant didn’t survive but what I had left of roots were great. I cut off the dead leaf of this and it’s been like this ever since I got it 😠Chunky soil mix, moss and stratum Thank u 🥹
To save your Gageana Aura Alocasia, provide it with excellent drainage by repotting in a chunky, well-draining soil mix, ensure it gets bright, indirect light, and fertilize regularly during the growing season. Avoid overwatering, a common cause of Alocasia rot; instead, water only when the top two-thirds of the soil feels dry. Continue to prune any remaining dead leaves and be patient, as new growth can take time to emerge from the corm.

Re-pot the Alocasia • Remove from current soil: Gently remove the plant from its pot and try to remove as much of the old soil as possible to inspect the roots. • Check for rot: Look for any signs of rot in the roots. If you find any, you can trim them off. o • Use a new, well-draining soil: Pot it in a chunky aroid mix that promotes excellent airflow to the roots and prevents moisture retention. o 2. Provide Proper Growing Conditions • Lighting: Place the plant in a location with bright, indirect light. o • Watering: Only water when the top two-thirds of the soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering is a major cause of Alocasia death. o • Fertilizing: Alocasias are heavy feeders. During the growing season (spring and summer), fertilize regularly. o • Humidity: Alocasias thrive on high humidity, so if your environment is dry, consider using a humidifier or placing the pot on a pebble tray filled with water.

Be Patient and Prune • Prune dead material: Continue to prune any dead or dying leaves to the base of the plant. o • Do not give up: Alocasias can be slow to bounce back, especially after a shock. Keep providing consistent care, and new leaves can emerge from the corm. e 4. Monitor for Pests o • Check for spider mites: Alocasias are very prone to spider mites, so inspect the leaves regularly for signs of pests. You can spray the leaves with water to help dislodge them.
