My alocasia is so so sad from chronic underwatering (on my end, my fault🥺) Any chance she will come back if I continue to keep the soul damp, or where to go from here??? I am so so sad, just like she is :(

    You can prune some of the older leaves to help redistribute its energy. I find alocasias will always come back even if you prune then right down 🌝

      Ah this is my first one ever and I am sad! The leaves are not necessarily dying yet, but do you still suggest pruning them??

    I personally would but it’s totally up to you! You can always wait and see how it looks with the extra water 🙂

    If you increase watering might also want to give it more light (not direct). Alocasia’s like a lot of light and that may be part of the problem.
