### River kommenterade den 2025-02-16

Yes! And several others. I got a Jacklyn which has been on my wish list for a long time. That's what I'm most excited about.

That's also an alocasia. I love them so much!

### Desertpersian kommenterade den 2025-02-16

I know! There's soooo much to learn! But it's fun when you LOVE what ur learning about, right? Except for the times I screw up! Then it's a pox on ALL your houses!! I'll burn it all down!! 🤣🤣🤣

Plant funerals are a normal part of the process. I've had MANY.

### Desertpersian kommenterade den 2025-02-16

Ur a better human than me...I truly got depressed both times! Both Calathea-one Pinstripe-be still my heart and a stunning Orbifolia that I fricken drowned!!! The utter shame!!

#### Desertpersian svarade den 2025-02-16

I learned a very hard lesson---other than my innate stupidity! Moisture Meter is my friend and well draining soil in WELL draining shallow container!

### River kommenterade den 2025-02-16

Calathea are so fussy!

#### Desertpersian svarade den 2025-02-16

Smart! 😉💯
