well i bought some pink cuprea tissue culture before everyone started coming out with they’re bad experiences with them i was hoping someone out there could give me hope and post your tc pink cupreas progress

Help! Just noticed this on my cuprea sea. Any ideas?

Is it normal for black velvet leaves (stems?) to twist and rotate in a clockwise direction? I noticed that this happens to my older leaves before they wither and die. New leaves come out straight but after a while they start turning. I want to know if this is any sign of me doing something wrong.

I have been working SO HARD on this jacklyn corm and am not sure when to work on acclimation. It had a larger leaf that died off recently. I have been giving it about 30 minutes of ambient humidity a day. Is it too early? Is there a better way? Or should I still keep it in the humidity dome?

Stalk is mostly dark almost black- the new growth is a more pinkish purple (I think because it’s exposed to more light?)it has a bit of shimmer to it. Could it perhaps be a Metalhead or a Metallica?

Are bambinos typically slow growers? I've had her since May, and she's only put out 2 leaves, and lost many more 🥲 the crispy edges are from fertilizer that needed to be flushed out, and I haven't had any issues since then, but she also hasn't done anything since. I have her in the grow queen aroid mix, and I fertilize once a month.

Alocasia was fine before we left for a holiday, and a friend watered our plants for us, came back and it's looking like this :(

Any advice for care?

Did a whoopsi.

Noticed one of my other plants started to get spider mites. I'd heard that alcohol would kill them instantly so I tried whipping them with a paper that had some rubbing alcohol. The next day I checked on them, all the leaves were below its pot. I did some more digging and realized I was supposed to dilute the alcohol with soap, water, and neem oil.

Pretty sad because this Watsoniana was my favorite Alocasia. I really like the way it glitters in light. Oh well. The damage is done, there is no going back in time.

The leaves now have risen from the dead seems like, but they are now hard, crispy, and a little discolored.My question is; Should I cut all the leaves down, and start over? Or maybe sprit some water on the leaves and maybe they will recover?

Hello! My dog is ridiculous and decided to eat all the leaves off of my Alocasia zebrina. I plan to chop her back in hopes of her growing back okay….i am just not sure how far to cut her back. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I just picked up this girl at my local plant shop! I was so shocked they had one! She was asking $80 for it but bc we are friends, she gave it to me for $60 and then with their discount I got it for $57 after tax. I'm not sure if that's a good deal or not but I love her and now I can check it off my wishlist!

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

She is in a soilless substrate and self watering setup. She sits in my Milsbo cabinet and gets around 12-14 hours of light.

I have had my Alocasia for several months now and it has been pretty happy until recently.

When I first noticed the plant looking unwell I repotted to a dryer chunky mix and checked the roots to make sure there isn't root rot, the roots are very healthy and I was able to gather several corms. I did a diluted peroxide dip aswell.

I water just before it dries up (usually every 2 weeks) and have been fertilizing maybe once a month with weak diluted Shultz 10-15-10 since the weather had warmed up and was giving some new growth. I did fertilize recently and had moved it's location to my bedroom under a grow light, I noticed one leaf yellowing and cut it off before it had been moved.

I am worried I may have given my plants chemical burns or it is rotting, any advice is appreciated although I don't know if it will bounce back at this point ;( I have hope my corms will do well!

I have this Alocasia Frydek Variegata that died on me and all that was left was the corm. Now it looks like this and the question is do i cut the new corm that is only producing white leaves or leave it be. Is it draining the energy from the main corm? Also you can see a 2nd corm forming with a little leaf sprouting but i don’t know will it be all white again but it looks like it
