Help. I saved this black velvet from Fred meyers. Changed it’s dirt, surprisingly found two corms, but it is still so… sad.

My velvet alocasia also looks like that😭 maybe fertilizer??

I’m the weirdo who liquid fertilizers every watering because I’m in the PNW and it’s the time of year where there is NO SUN… but it’s been like this since I’ve bought it 4 months ago.

They are droopy for a while after repot, they really throw a fit after.

Put it in the bathroom or other highly humid area. And then make sure to let it slightly dry before watering. Mine likes that a lot.

It may be the humidity. I have mines at 60% and it perks up. Now if it will only birth new leaves…🥹

I have her next to a humidifier but she keeps dropping leaves so I’m assuming it’s a root problem now. Luckily I have two corms from her so if she does go I’ll be able to grow more.
