I’m being given this, I think it’s an alocasia polly, to rescue. It was left neglected at my friend’s office and I offered to give it a shot. Can anyone help me with what to do with her to give her a chance?? Pretty please ☺️

    I had a similar problem with my rescue Alocasia. I think mine was a result of too little humidity. I keep it near my humidifier. The original brown leaf on mine never got better and continued to whither so I let it go. It did sprout a healthy new leaf without the browning, so I think it’s relatively happy. I’m no expert, in fact the opposite with alocasia. Just my experience.

      The leaf with more brown broke when I got it home so I just did a cut below it. The stem has a great root system and is in water until I figure out if it can even sprout another leaf in its condition. I repotted the other one and will monitor it. Thank you!

    I’ll post my pics in the illness group, it doesn’t look like we can post pictures on posts.

    Personally I would check for corms and try to sprout those into little baby plants.

      And cut the leaves off the mother plant since it has a good root system and see if it’ll resprout.

    Mine flipped over dead today. Oh well, I tried. Will try and propagate the corms and see if it works.
