Hey guys, i got this Alocasia Silver Dragon around two weeks ago and noticed it had this little thing in the soil. I havenāt touched it (hoping it will be another plant/leaf) but, im hoping someone on here can tell me what it is? Any advice/tips are greatly appreciated also, i wanna keep this baby aliveāŗļø
Itās a corm! You can leave it and itāll grow a baby in there, or you can take it out and have it grow separate
2 gillningarAwe, this makes me so happy! Which is better to do in your opinion? Iāve heard they like being together but also ā¦.another separate Alocasia is hard to pass upš„¹

I waited till i wanted to re-soil/repot mine, then collected all the corms throughout the soil all at once. Then i propagated them separately only because i had so many corms and because i wanted them to sprout as fast as possible. If you leave them who knows when they may sprout if at all. Now that mine all have at least 1 leaf, iām going to plant 2-3 of them back in the mother pot (to make a nice full plant) and put the rest into a new pot with Pon since they are already used to semi-hydro from perlite prop box. So it all depends what your end intentions are.
2 gillningarThank you so much for the advice! Iāll definitely separate them now whenever I repot. Do you have any recommendations for soil?
