So my alocasia frydek variegated is finally recovering. I think it was the shock of moving to a new place. We started with 5 leaves and then the leaves started to get droopy (picture 2) and those 4 leaves are gone leaving me with only one healthy leaf (Picture 3), but that leaf is putting out some new growth, and I am so excited about it!!! I decided to leave one of the last leaves on the plant as she still has some green (picture 5) and the plant can still absorb nutrients from there, but over all the leaf is unrepaireable and soon will be chopped of as the other ones. She will remain until all the green dies off or until I get some groth to support the plant, I’ll see.

Mine is down to one leaf and I’ve transferred it to moss to rehab πŸ™„
It’ll be going in pon once it has some more roots!

Good luck with yours!
@Peachyhoyas thank you so much. They can be quite dramatic plants πŸ˜… but all and all they are beautiful plants!
Good luck πŸ‘πŸ€ it’s beautiful
@FitBrowallia Thank you so much 😊
Mine is currently suggesting that it wants to drop a couple leaves as well. I used to care deeply when it would do this. Now, not so much. So goddam dramatic, these ones!
They can appreciate plastic pots and high humidity with a chunky medium mix and sips of rain water or distilled water. Any change in that will cause leaf loss and other issues like mites and crisp margins.
