I love your video, I watched your other videos. What type of soil do you grow your Alocasia in? I have a baby of Alocasia and lost stems and leaves but the body/? Is in water and growing roots
Took me a long time to get thru this video cuz Pause, Note, Play, Pause, Note, etc. You packed so much Alocasia info into your narrative, incl. factors like growth rate, pest susceptibility but also your particular plant's history and how you are growing. Plus tips about self-water pots. Plus ... New subscriber!
Your alocasias are absolutely incredible!! Wow!! Thoroughly enjoyed the tour, it was quite inspiring to see their potential. Thank you for the tips along the way. I look forward to other alocasia videos 💚💯🙌.
@@yolyrom7233 Aww lucky! I saw one at my local Walmart but some stupid woman took it…along with 2 monsteras and like 5 orchids..plant people can be so greedy 😭
So glad to have found you! ❤ I have just started on the Alocasia bus and I am terrified of killing them. I ordered a Black Velvet, Dragon Scale, Dragon Moon, and Frydek. I do have Lechuza Pon but right now I have the Black Velvet and Dragon scale baby’s that I have already received in fluval stratum. I have dyna grow foliage pro, Super thrive vitamin solution and silica. Will it be okay to use those with the Alocasia’s or should I get something else?
I love your channel. New suscriber and I binged all the videos. I know in one of the videos you had mentioned its hard to get Pon. I see its out of stock on the Lechuza website-are they going out of business? Is there an alternate source? Just wondering if you’ve heard anything.
Do you have Melo Alocaisa? I have one, and I'm struggling with it. Please help. I have it in a well draining soil mix. It sits close to a grow light, and it sits next to a bunch of other plants.. I'm guessing the humidity is the problem. I just thought I would ask.

This is a wonderful video and you have wonderful, healthy plants ❤ I have three Alocasias: Jacklyn, Black Velvet and Dragon Scale. The easiest is the Jacklyn, it keeps pushing out new growth like crazy and it keeps its leaves. My problem child is my Alocasia Dragon Scale. This guttation is driving me insane. I tried everything: keeping it relatively moist, letting it dry out half way, letting it dry out completely, ... I don't know anymore. It gets enema on its leaves and they yellow and die off. I have it in Lechuza Pon. Anyone, ideas? How do you keep yours happy with the watering in a self watering pot?
Canopy Plant Co. I work with them and they have a huge selection of Alocasias at the moment. Their website is canopyplantco.com if you decide to buy anything use code: leafydiva15 for 15% off your purchase. ☺️
My longiloba has been doing great this winter! I've only gotten one new leaf, but it's huge and there's another pushing out right now. Also, I love your Batik! I have a small one with two plants in the pot and hope it can size up like yours!
I LOVE Jewel Alocasias, and really want one, but SOOOO not prepared to deal with water and humidity care. I need something easy like hoyas. LOL I added way too many plants way too quickly too! LOL I have 300, technically over if you count propagations, within a year. 😕 I LOVE your shirt. LOL
Love your alocasias! ❤ My Silver Dragon is directly in a south-facing window and loves it. I find it extremely light tolerant, actually. Maybe I'm just lucky that it never got spidermites, but I don't think this is a lower light plant to be honest :)
Impressive collection. I love Alocasia, but they don't tend to love me back. I'm growing a couple of jewels from corms in a closed terrarium - which they should thrive in. But in sure they still have some drama in store for me.
I also hope to be vibing or become one with my Alocasia one day! Thank you for giving me hope. 💚 Right now it’s been 6 months of misery with them 😂😂😂😂 Hopefully I’ll be able to break this spell soon! I love these Jurassic plants from outer space so much, I’ll never be able to give up on them!
My son bought me a poly 2 years ago and it has quadrupled in size. I got a stingray last summer and just recently found a silver dragon. In Colorado and our stores just don’t get the variety or amount that other states get and I can’t afford anything higher than $25. Also don’t buy online due to price and I can’t visually see the plant. My first love is Hoya and would love to see your Hoya collection if you have them. Tfs
I’m surprised I didn’t see any black velvet, frydek variegated, or watsoniana. I recently got a micky mouse “alocasia” I think it’s a xanthoma or something like that but it’s soooo beautiful 😍
Funny thing is I work with a nursery one day a week for a few hours and see those Alocasias almost every week. I stay away from velvety Alocasias! Lol The Watsoniana actually used to be a huge wishlist plant for me, but by the time I had a chance to get one, I already had too many Alocasias and didn’t want it anymore. I still might buckle and get it one day! They look so good mature. ☺️
I have an Alocasia silver dragon and a black velvet that are growing beautifully. They’re babies so they are in pon in self-watering planters. Thanks for that advice 💚 Now my Alocasia Jacklyn…she’s in the one leaf club despite having two plants. No more Jacklyn’s for me.
I’ve never heard anything good about Jacklyn care. It’s the only reason I don’t have one! Lol I love how beautiful they are, but I can’t afford to manage anymore finicky plants! 😅
Thank You Ma'am !! For being that "bad influence" on me. Your the reason why I have an alocasia addiction! lol Love your t-shirt Ma'am. It too shall become part of my collection! lol Thumbs Up & Air Hugs Iowa 😊
Great collection! I have the Melo rather than the Maharani and I unfortunately lost my Bisma Silver 😞 Dont know what happened since ALL my other Alocasia are thriving and pushing out new growth like nobody's business. I've always wanted the Dragon's Breath but I've decided after watching this video that a) I don't want another spidermite prone alocasia and b) I have no room left in my house 😆 Almost bought a New Guinea Gold but got the Alocasia Macrorrhiza Variegata instead 😜 Thanks for sharing your collection with us.
Quick Correction: 9:16 says 2022 and it should be 2023
Thanks for watching! ☺️🫶
I shouldn't have watch this video, now I want more than one😭
I love your video, I watched your other videos. What type of soil do you grow your Alocasia in? I have a baby of Alocasia and lost stems and leaves but the body/? Is in water and growing roots
How do u get your leaves so big?

They’re so pretty!
Why do you get rid of the korms
I LOVE Alocasia!
Idk how to feel because the polly is one of my dream plants 😂😂
I just recently bought one. I’ve been wanting one for so long since I first saw them. Looking for a Jacklyn now. So far so good, nothing complicated.
@@yolyrom7233 Aww lucky! I saw one at my local Walmart but some stupid woman took it…along with 2 monsteras and like 5 orchids..plant people can be so greedy 😭
👁️👄👁️ now I understand why I might have rotted my Jewel alocasias. This video is gold. And your collection is amazing.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Because of this I bought an Alocasia Chantrieri!!!! Can’t wait!!!!!!
Omg so happy for you! I have one and I love her so much.
So glad to have found you! ❤

Does longiloba silver goes dormant as well? Im planning to get another one again
What substrate do you use for your plants? They are so beautiful❤
Can I have a dragons breath corm
Me encanta tu video !! Colecciono alocasias y tus tips fueron de gran ayuda !
Muchas gracias 😊
Do you have a Alocasia jacklyn or no because they look like nice
I have all of them but they don’t look like yours 😂
I don’t understand Alocasia in any way.
They’re good trial and error to learn 😂😂😂❤❤ my favorite and most fickle
My alocasias are wonderful. My philodendron are the pains for me 🥲 (most of my alocasias are in pon)
Very nice collection I've been trying to build an alocasia collection.
Go for it!
This is a wonderful video and you have wonderful, healthy plants ❤

I have it in Lechuza Pon. Anyone, ideas? How do you keep yours happy with the watering in a self watering pot?
What humidity do you have it in? Sometimes if the RH of a room is too high it can impede on transpiration, lending to more water retention
What soil do you use?
Do you sell the corms
Hi. Where do you purchase your Alocasia's they are my favorites but I have a hard time finding them.

Alocasia chantrieri. I found one of those at Trader Joe's but didn't know what variety it was. Now I know!
Your plants are gorgeous. What type of soil do you use? And how about fertilizer? New at all this, but love plants
Thanks you for sharing lovely houseplants beautiful lovely plants collection beautiful lovely video have a good day
Just bought my first one thank you for sharing learning so much about them 😊
Super helpful video. I have a brand new love for alocasia! Great tips to grow them up right!
Oh how I wish I was your best friend!!!!
I have a black velvet and an amazoni… my black velvet is my legit baby
Keepen it real. Love it. Thank you❤

I love Hoyas too! I definitely need to do a Hoya tour. I actually have more of them than I do Alocasias. 😅
I’ll buy those Sabrina corms from you 😊
I feel like I might get one
Very good video. The only thing I would have added is how much alocasia love heat.
Yeah, I forgot to mention a lot of things. The spidermites are back in season so they’re top of mind right now. 😅
I’m surprised I didn’t see any black velvet, frydek variegated, or watsoniana. I recently got a micky mouse “alocasia” I think it’s a xanthoma or something like that but it’s soooo beautiful 😍

I’m on the lookout for a Frydek

I really want a Jacklyn and sad so many people have a bad time with her
Doesn't the duster transfer pests? Do you disinfect it?
I’ve been using it for over a year and I havent had any of those issues. If it’s a concern, you could clean it in a sink or bucket of soapy water. 😊
🙂❤️🌱✨
I needed this one! My Alocasia black magic is giving me a hard time. Im taking notes 🧐 Thank you for the info !!
It's probably a 'colocasia' which are a different, although similar, species. Colocasias are practically swamp plants and want constantly wet medium!
@@hberror404 Ooo thank you, I always used those interchangeably!😅
Good evening your plants are beautiful did you ever find out how to make the pon substrate?
Someone in the comments directed me to a site to order more Pon. It just got delivered yesterday! 😊
@@leafydiva Can you send me the link
U go gurl
💚💚💚
Thank You Ma'am !!
For being that "bad influence" on me. Your the reason why I have an alocasia addiction! lol
Love your t-shirt Ma'am. It too shall become part of my collection! lol

Plants are Females. ie, ROSES! DAISYS, MARIGOLD, ever heard of Tom’s or Bobs!
😂😂😂 that’s funny but also true. I call my plants both it depends on my mood.
Great collection!

I have dragons breath with about 30 other alocasia and it doesn’t get spider mites and for me it grows big and fast :)
