Alocasia do well in a rich soil mix and appreciate regular watering, although some are also tolerant of significant drought in my experience. I use a variety of different medium for Alocasia and usually have less drainage or a tray of water for them to stand in. Some do quite well as houseplants, however for most vigorous growth, additional humidity and temperatures in the 70s-80s are usually ideal. Alocasia can be very prone to spider mites so I reccomend regularly treating the leaves with pesticide or beneficial insects. Species-specific care may vary, and watering and light needs will depend on your environment and conditions.

Corms can be started in any medium including moss, pon, tephra, or just water, and will require constant even humidity until rooted and established.

I am available to answer any questions about purchased plants via my instagram or email.
