I want to officially introduce Shadowfax to the family! My new Alocasia Dawn. I got him yesterday in pretty rough shape (thanks again to everyone who gave me advice and tips for his care!). After some TLC he is looking much better. I can’t wait for future #FreshLeafFriday pics of the beautiful leaves he grows. I’m just in love with this plant. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #AlocasiaAddicts
