Introducing…

LESTAT!!!

Lestat is a bat winged Alocasia. I purchased him a week ago at Lowe’s for $24 and yesterday he was transplanted into this planter. He came with the yellowing on the leaves already.

I told an acquaintance that I’ve been purchasing plants at Walmart and Home Depot and she said I should go to Lowe’s instead. There was a way better selection at Lowe’s!

Btw the little worm is a moisture indicator.

I only wish it was a better moisture indicator, lol. It’s cute though.
