I just rescued one from a big box store. My kids tipped it over in the cart, and a decent amount of water poured out! (Nursery pot inside pretty pot) No wonder it was on clearance, they were killing it. Now I get to let it dry a bit and be happy 😊

[@cookienibz2578]

I was ALL about your dog joining the show, I very PROUDLY wear my shirt that says "I'm sorry I can't, I have dogs & plants that need me" all the time!😂 Thanks for the information. Very helpful as I didn't realize the same cycles occur w/allocasias as with colocasias. I have TONS of colocasias, & just recently started adding allocasias to my indoor collection.

[@dustfeatherandco]

My alocasia bambino is loving my bathroom since it's high humidity. I plan on getting a small grow light for it since that room has a skylight but doesn't receive a whole ton of light. It is growing very well and produces about 1 new leaf per week and already has a smaller plant that sprouted from a little corm.

[@pinkorulez]

This was so helpful. I'm new to raising plants so every detail helps. Thanks!

[@prankster_sisters8495]

I had a big spider mite issue with on of my alocasias, and it was so close to all of my other plants that I was worried, but it was too big to move, but the funny thing is that it didn’t spread to any other plants. I’m still in the process of treating it, and it definitely lost a few leaves. I was worried it was because of spider mites, but one of them died before the spider mites, so that one was just from needing to grow more. Thanks for the tips and informative video!

[@rrenatabp]

I got my alocasia black velvet a week ago not knowing it was a fussy plant (I'm a newbie in house plants lol) but it has been pretty happy so far! I live in a high humidity area so that is probably why. I doused some neem oil on the leaves hoping to prevent pests as I imagined the velvety leaves would be very very prone to something.

Perfect timing! I just got a dragon scale and I’ve only had it for a week and two leaves turned yellow! I think it’s because it was overwatered at the store but could also be normal winter dropping 🤷🏼‍♀️ either way thanks for a helpful video!

[@TheJungleHaven]

Dragon scale is so gorgeous! If you suspect it might have been overwatered it might be worth checking the roots to make sure there's no signs of rotting - you're right though, it could partly be down to the time of year!

Jewel alocasia will sometimes drop a couple of leaves when they go into a new environment. All things being equal, they’ll grow back fine.

[@janna7756]

@@monefs6145 I was thinking that too. When I brought home a black velvet last year it dropped too but not right away so I was surprised that this one did so quickly. My environment isn’t the best for alocasia so it definitely make sense that it needs time to adjust. Thanks for the input

Thank you for this video. I have an Alocasia Polly and how it's surviving and healthy is a mystery. All conditions are opposite to what I've heard elsewhere and what you're saying. It's in a 4 inch pot with 3 beautiful leaves. I got it only about 3 months ago. I give it hard tap water, it's in a cold north facing window, the humidity in my house is between 20% and 24%, never more and the temp does fluxuate. So, we'll see. Great videos!

[@TheJungleHaven]

Wow that's amazing it's doing so well! Alocasia Polly are perhaps slightly less sensitive than certain other types (such as Calidora or Nebula) but still I'm really suprised. You've had more luck then I have in the past - hope she keeps growing strong!

[@kateoc8]

Curious how your polly is doing now after a full season???

[@Valentina-km8cg]

@@kateoc8 Hi! Well, a while back it dropped two of its leaves so I moved it to an east facing window. It still has only one leaf but it's large at 10 inches and healthy. Rest of the care is the same and I'm waiting to see what spring brings. Thanks for asking.

[@kateoc8]

@@Valentina-km8cg wow. You must have charmed it or something because mine has sulked all winter with one leaf, having lost the 2 other big leaves it had when I bought it last June. It's being a madam but I definitely underwater it, so I've started ramping up the water, using spring or rain water, and a little feed starting this month as the light levels are getting good again in uk. Plus I've moved it to a bright but indirectly lit conservatory. Frickin' prima donna, it is!

[@johannaparis7630]

I have a Polly, and it is definitely the happiest plant in my collection (which is weird). Usually when they have flowers, they will lose one leaf or more later one (but that's normal). That's the reason why some people cut theirs flowers before they bloom (so maybe it is what's happening with your plant). However, I let my allocasia flower, and I get more and more leaves every year during the growing season (during winter I have 2 or 3, during summer I have three times that), and the plant produced babies by herself. I don't have much light, don't fertilise that much, but I did group it with smaller plants which love humidity and water without taking her light. The plant will not forgive even few hours in the cold but they grow back during spring.

[@TheJungleHaven]

I'm glad yours is going strong! Agree about the flowering - I always used to chop mine back but I thought I'd give pollination a go this time

[@macmartha8888]

Thank you so much for this video. Could you share how to store the tubers?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Yes of course - when I did it I just kept them in the pot with dry soil in the attic. They like dark and somewhere not too warm (as this can cause them to start rotting). I checked them every few weeks or so to make sure they were ok and then planted them back up in the spring!

Will cutting those leaves off for aesthetic purposes encourage new growth or stress the plant out? I’ve had it for a few weeks to let it settle in and it’s already given me a huge new leaf. Any suggestions? xx

Mine is going yellow without any new growth 😢 No pests, no root rot. I had a fan circulating the room so I've turned that off because even at it's lowest setting the breeze from it feels cold. Humidity is between 60%-70%, temperature 19C-21C, and my plants are under grow lights for at least 10 hours a day. How do you store the tubers, please?

[@RuiLopesOutrorui]

Hello. I hope you can help me with my alocasia amazonica polly. There's been a lot of humidity where i live and since saturday her leaves have a drop of water on the edges 24/7. One of the leaves, the one with less light cause of positioning, had several drops and was totally brown on the edge. Had to cut it off as it was starting to rot, basically. We didn't overwater it, only watered it once when it came (7 days ago) with rain water. We moved it to a better location yesterday, with more indirect bright light but if you have any tips i would apreciate it. Thank you.

[@akaalx]

When you say "lose their leaves" does that mean the large leaves break? All but one of my large leaves have broken no matter what I used to support them. I didn't see any comments regarding the breaking of leaves. Thanks.

*** CAN ANYONE ANSWER THIS QUESTION ??? *** I just bought a massive one like your biggest one in the back but mine has purply black with green stems leaves. Called: alocasia regal shield. how can I clean this type of leaves, it's not as shinny as your green one... The leave are a little fuzzy on top. So I cannot put water on them while wiping them down? Maybe I can use water neem mixture just on the bottom of the leaves? It has some kind of orangey slimy fuzzy looking bugs. I need to clean it super good. Please tell me how! It's gorgeous. I don't want those bugs spreading to the rest of my large collection... Unfortunately it needs the light and has to be in that room. Thanks anyone who can tell me. By the way this video is amazing!

Hi first time watching ! Nice video I have an Alocasia Frydek too I live in Canada and I can't seem for now to be able to reach the 50percent humidity so a popular gardener around here said to put it in a transparent plastic bag to create like a wet room is it too much and also in didn't quite catch what you said about storage? Thank you

[@dollycaldwell4938]

I am so in love, almost obsessed, with these plants but I am struggling keeping any of my purchases alive. I pay GOOD money !! Are there any particular ones that might be easy for a newbie to grow???

[@TheJungleHaven]

Alocasia can be slightly tricky (or at least they were for me at first) until you get used to what they like/don't like. Certain types of monstera are great (deliciosa, standleyana, dubia, siltepecana) along with epipremnum as a genus (they all tend to be very straight forward). If you're after something super easy that doesn't require much care, also things like the ZZ plant and snake plants are great! 💚

[@darcynr1]

hi , thank you so much for the video. i've been working in a garden center recently and before that in a flowershop. now i have a table filled with alocasia plants and they usually are standing pretty good but when i water them its like they start making their stemps to full of water and just fall off. the stemps become soggy. so i cant keep the table where they stand on wet for the other plants that need it. do you have any tips or advice for me that i can use? hope to hear from you soon. and thanks again for the video 🙂😊

So that maybe you can confirm that this is normal or what I can do to correct it if it's not. Thank you so much for your time, and I hope to hear from you. Heather

This was almost a week ago and know I’m wondering what can I do to save her, all of her leaves are completely dry but no in the natural way (like yellow) but just green and dead… can I cut all of her leaves? To hope she has new?

[@quincyfleuren1693]

@the jungle haven So after having owned an elephant ear for 2 years now. (yay for not killing it) The stembase seems to become taller and taller, I now have the fear of it tilting over and snapping at the base. Is there anything I can or should do to reduce the base length and or the rate of which this base is growing? So far I've repotted it once with the next repot planned in Feb and pruned old or damaged leaves.

[@jennifert4189]

I bought some alocasias, first time owning them, the one i bought a month or so ago, is doing well and throwing out new leaves constantly, 2 more about to unfurl right now. I received one (zebrina) on wednesday (2 days ago) but its a bit bigger/older than my other one, it has 2 largeish leaves (about hand size) but 1 of them is yellowing, almost turning white in patches. the other one is still green but it points down towards the floor (its not perky) is this shock from posting? it was packaged well but i do believe it was sent on the monday and arrived on Wednesday. do i just chop that leaf? is it about to go dormant for winter? if it loses both leaves, do i remove the tubers from the soil and store them til spring? or leave them in the soil? I'm so panicked that I will do something wrong and kill her lol. This is my first winter with a plant that actively goes dormant/loses leaves, so I'm just not sure what to expect or when i need to worry xD any advice on dormancy or travel shock would be greatly appreciated.

[@benkask96]

Even with a humidifier i can only achieve humidity of 40-55% depending on the weather. If it rains for multiple days do i get 60%. Hope my dragon scale doesn't die :(

How often are you fertilizing?

[@bryonybarlow4947]

I have a large elephant ear plant which is growing and putting out new leaves but it seems really droopy and the leaves don’t stand up well. Any idea what I should be doing?

[@TheJungleHaven]

The main things that spring to mind are light and water. Leaves can drop when the light they're receiving isn't good enough - they'll essentially sacrifice some leaves so that the main body of the plant can conserve it's energy. They can also be really sensitive to too little/too much water, so making sure you're only watering them as and when they actually need it is best. When you do water, make sure to thoroughly soak the soil so that the whole root system's targeted

[@georgianistor5873]

Hi, I just got an Alocasia that had 1 leaf and is starting to yellow and get weaker. I guess its because of the change of medium, bun I'm not really sure, because it's still summer and it's not suppose to get dormant. And it also has some little bumps alog side the stem. Are those new growth?

[@davidhimself9556]

Mine has put out a really small and short leaf and stoped growing... Probably bcs its winter but that small leaf disapointed me.

[@TheJungleHaven]

You're right it could definitely be due to the time of year - as I say they tend to like it warm and bright, so maybe your plant just wasn't getting enough energy to pump out a bigger one at the moment. Fingers crossed she'll give you some great new growth soon!

[@jyotipatel8098]

Hi, thanks for the very informative video. I have Alocasia big elephant ear plant, and I see some waxy/creamy or looks like cold coconut oil that's solidified type residue under the leaves. Any idea what this is? I do wipe them away, but comes back.

[@TheJungleHaven]

No worries! White residue is often caused by pests (mealybugs for example leave thick white residue, but that's not usually got an oily-thickness)... Feel free to ping a photo across to me on IG and I'll have a look and do my best to help, but if it's not pest-related I'd suspect it's probably fungal

Thank you for the video! I have a question, my alocasia portodora has only one leaf left and its beginning to yellow, no new growth its developing so I don't know what I should do. What do you think?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Hiya - I'd think from what you've said it's probably going into a kind of "hibernation" state. Have you checked the roots to make sure they're not rotting or anything? Assuming they're fine, I'd suggest maybe storing the tubers (I kept my zebrina ones in the attic cause they like it fairly cool and dark, and just checked them regularly). You can then plant it back up when it comes to spring and it should grow back healthily!

Why? Is it just adapting to its new environment? Also, when should I repot it, wait a couple weeks or wait until next spring?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Thank you so much! Don't panic about the plant dripping water - it's totally natural and something they do to help process any water they don't need (you'll usually notice it the day after you water your alocasia). Nothing to worry about at all 💚

[@WinkingWhiskers]

"water thoroughly" and "not a believer in light watering" you must take into account that not all houses have the same conditions my house by default has +60 humidly, the cooler side and with minimum airflow. I once took the advice of "watering thoroughly" and let the pot drain for half an hour in the bathtub before placing it back this killed 2 of my Alocasias, 2 Syngoniums and 3 calatheas, cutting the rotten roots and repotting didnt help. ever since then, ive been light watering when the top soil is dry and the pot feels "lighter", haven't had any root rot issues.

[@WinkingWhiskers]

not only that but i have a watering log, every plant has its own profile where i write down the dates, to avoid overwatering.

[@sharonelliott1075]

My elephant ears lost all of it's leaves. It has always struggled but I am hoping that because it is winter here it is just dormant. Should I leave it in the pot or check that I am not wasting my time?

[@TheJungleHaven]

They can go into dormancy over the winter months, but if I were you I'd just check the roots to make sure there's no underlying cause such as root rot. If they look fine you can store the bulbs and plant them again come spring 💚

[@joanneyeomans6294]

Hi, I've just brought home an alocasia purple sword which is not in very good soil. Should I immediately repot it into an aroid mix or wait a while? It's my first alocasia. Thank you.

[@aperez0167]

I also just bought a dragon scale from Walmart. When I brought it home I checked it for pests on the leaves, but I noticed a small brown worm w/a lot of legs coming out of the soil. I now that I'm not supposed to replant or bother the roots when bringing it home, but since I saw that I had to. So I changed out the soil & watered it. Six days later it's droopy looking, and the soil still looks a bit damp. It receives the indirect morning light from my east window. Do you think it's because I disturbed the roots or is it acclimating? Could you give me a few tips, thanks.

[@TheJungleHaven]

They can be super sensitive plants when it comes to change, so it's probably just in shock. Keep it's environment as warm and humid as possible as well as making sure the soil stays moist (but not saturated). If you don't have a humidifier you could try popping it into a sealed sandwich bag - I've often found this helps when acclimating new plants 💚

[@dylankendall4582]

I'm thinking of companion planting a small Alocasia Macrorrhiza Variegated in the same pot as a medium AMV - the AMV medium is 2-3" high ... one stem ... any issues? pot is 9" wide- medium AMV is in the middle of the pot - thank you!

[@TheJungleHaven]

I wouldn't have thought you'd have issues with that - alocasias often naturally produce bulbs which grow into smaller plants in the same pot anyway, so I reckon it would be fine 💚

[@katherinelay9214]

Can you spray the leaves with water to increase humidity ?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Misting isn't the best way to increase humidity as it's a super temporary fix and isn't very sustainable. As I mention in this video too, plants with velvety leaves don't like their leaves to get wet, so misting isn't great for them. If you don't have a humidifier give pebble trays a go, or group lots of your plants together (as they transpire they naturally provide humidity which helps the other plants out)

[@leslieparsons408]

The stand advice to let tap water sit for 12 hours is fast becoming antiquated! Municipal water systems have largely gone over to a different type of Chlorine that stays in the water and does not evaporate out. If you kill three plants with toxic tap water, you could have paid for a Reverse Osmosis system for your home. You don't need a plumber to install it and the water is much better for YOU as well.

Why everyone is making the same mistake suggesting Rain water for plants. There are more chemicals, smoke and poison in the air that comes down with the rain drops. I always use my filtered water. Have a Brita water filter or use your fridge filtered water, let it sit and get the room temperature and water your plants. Much cheaper, easier and safer.
