# Saw this super unique plant at a local shop and it had to come home…

_Publié par Gabby le 2024-06-19_

Saw this super unique plant at a local shop and it had to come home with me! It was a buy first, research later situation 😂 turns out it’s an Alocasia Zebrina and I’m OBSESSED. I’ve had it for four days and it’s already giving me a new leaf 😍 so excited. Thank you for coming to my 🪴Plant Talk🪴

Oh I just looked that up (I’m not well-versed in Alocasias haha), so pretty!

#### Bri ha respondido el 2024-06-19

lol I wasn’t for a while either ! 😅 they’re soooo pretty but can get so expensive !

#### Gabby ha respondido el 2024-06-19

Right?! Anything that’s trending is crazy marked-up. I’m in the market for a Monstera Thai Constellation but every time I find one, I’m like 😮‍💨

#### Bri ha respondido el 2024-06-19

Right ! Lol I’ve always wanted one too and an albo ! I know Walmart was doing thais but I don’t know if they ever came my way lol

My Jaclyn has similar stem striping. Good luck! Don’t let her dry out!

#### Tellie ha respondido el 2024-06-19

Agreed.  
My zebrina likes moist soil. If I let her dry too much she drops leaves like flies.

I’m about to be out of town for two weeks and am NERVOUS for all my plants. I do have someone coming to water them but they can’t come that often.
