# Sad news to report about my Alocasia Bambino that was on the way from…

Sad news to report about my Alocasia Bambino that was on the way from BubbleBlooms thru Amazon! It was already taking a week to ship, then it got delayed an estimated other week!!! Poor Sal is dead or dying right now! At least Amazon processed my refund.

It’s still in my order history like it might still show up on the 8th…I might have a nursing back to health situation with him!?

Is it totally dead? Can you just chop off the top and keep the bulb in there? That’s what I did with mine and it came back. I covered it with saran wrap.

Yes this company doesn’t seem to be accommodating far as I have read.
