# Just received this pretty alocasia from an Etsy seller only to…

_Postat av Gracie den 2025-10-25_

Just received this pretty alocasia from an Etsy seller only to realize it looks like 3 plants potted together! It needs to be reported anyway, should I separate them? Or repot them together? Does it make a difference?

Do not repot it immediately. this goes for any plants you take home, but give it a week or so before you start fiddling with it, so that it doesn't go into shock. but yes, separate them the next time you repot. it's much easier to separate them while small than to separate three mature plants.

I have Alocasias planted together. They are in semi hydro. One pot has three, another two. Then I have a polly that has about five corms that have sprouted over the last several months. I have left well enough alone. Pots are not root bound. All are thriving. The Alocasias in semi hydro, I purposely planted together to reduce numbers. I had too many.
