I just got this alocasia plant from a neighbor who is moving. It’s my first alocasia. It looks droopy to me. Any pro tips? Thank you!

Is it dry mabey underwatered? Is it overwatered

It was dry and I watered it straight away. All of the leaves hang almost below the pot.

When did u water it? And mabey put it next to a window in part shade for a bit

#### Ctut님이 2024-03-31에 답변했습니다.

Not long ago. I will give it the prime window spot in the morning. Are the leaves supposed to droop so much or stand up?

The soil could be really dry

The stems/leaves are supposed to stand up… it may have been searching for light if they had the light source low (grow light maybe). So try putting by a window or a grow light above it
