My Alocasia Collection: Wins, Rehabs & Lessons

Описание: I present to you my current alocasia collection - a couple of established plants, a few small ones, some rehabs and some lessons I've learned along the way. This is an honest look at my alocasia journey and the wins and struggles involved.

I might not be an alocasia expert and a few of them may be kicking my butt, BUT my love for the genus is pushing me to learn more about them and what keeps them happy in my home. I started with an Alocasia Polly almost two years ago and, as it started doing well, I slowly added a few more (some more "ambitious" than others 😅). Since then I've grown plants from corms, lost a few, I'm rehabbing some right now and I'm learning a lot about what these prima donnas need.

Right now I have:
🪴 Two established Alocasias in LECA
💧 Three I still need to transition to semihydro
❤️‍🩹 One rehab in a prop box
🌱 Plus a few I'm growing from corms

My goal is to transition the whole collection to LECA/ semihydro over time, so I share a bit about those plans as well.

If you're curious about growing alocasias, or dealing with setbacks, I hope this feels relatable and realistic 💚
