Okay I’ve posted this before in comments, but I need to make my own post about this new baby of mine, This last week I finally did it… I got my first #alocasia 😱🥳 I’ve been doing tons of research and I just happened to stop at Home Depot right after they had a huge brand new shipment, and there was one beautiful Alocasia sinuata hiding amongst every thing else. It looked like a sad little crocodile (alligator? Which snout is shaped like which?) that needed a home so off with me it came! (Think of THAT what you will 😂) My one question is—I know you’re not supposed to “bury the crown” ie the part where the roots meet the green bits (I am very scientific 🤓), but this seems wobbly to me, especially since this one needs more of a shallow pot. How do you keep it from wobbling while it’s settling in? I made a quick tripod trellis out of 3 chopsticks and gently eased it in around it but idk. 🤷🏼♀️ #HappyPlants #HappyPlace #AlocasiaAddicts #brunchataudreys #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #NewPlantMom #PlantShelfie #PlantCorner #PlantLove #DreamMachine #adhdplantlovers

Help!! Black Velvet Alocasia My black velvet alocasia was one of my first plants and is a few years old now. She was a gift from my dad (who has a super green thumb and can grow anything anywhere). She had three leaves when I received her, then got up to five!! Last spring, she started flowering and she’s growing out of the pot. She has not stopped flowering. Everytime I see new growth, IT’S ANOTHER FLOWER!! And she is STRUGGLING now! Only two leaves, one is unhealthy so I’m going to cut it. I’m not sure if she needs to be repotted with how she is growing out of the pot, but I know repotting whole flowering is a huge no-no. I don’t know what to do! Any advice? I tagged her so you can see what she looked like before! I’ll add some photos of what she looks like now on this post!

My arrowhead vine was growing nicely then it just started dying. I moved it once but in the same vicinity. Didn’t think that would hurt him. #Syngonium

What is going on here?

do some allcasias not like semi hydro? i just changed her from soil to semi hydroponic soil (leca) and her leaves now feel soft and flimsy and droppy. when they were originally very tough

This little sprout just got here from Florida today. Spent a week in transit during a snow storm, fingers crossed I can baby her enough to thrive! Wish me luck 🫠🌱 #AlocasiaAddicts #variegatedplants #RarePlants #HappyPlants
