HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 май 2022
- In this video I go over how to root and grow an Alocasia from a Corm and I repot an Alocasia as well. I found some corms in the soil and I show you step by step on how I root and grow an alocasia from the beginning. I also show you some corms I have rooting and a successful propagation back into the mother plant.
If you have any alocasia questions let me know in the comments! I'll follow up this video with an update!

I brought a 'dormant' silver dragon for $5. After months of nothing I finally checked the roots and it was dead. BUT I found 5 corms! I wish I found your video sooner but I think I did good. My $5 dead plant gave me 5 babies and all of them are growing wonderfully now! 😊
Just as a note for anyone about to attempt this process: WEAR GLOVES especially if you tend to be allergen sensitive, the SAP of alocasia is toxic and if you have it on tour fingers and happen to scratch yourself YOU WILL REGRET IT. A thorough wash will help but its painful when it happens. Be safe!
In my experience if you're dropping a leaf for every new leaf the plant needs a little more light
Can we also mention that Alocasia "juice" is irritating on the skin. I propagated my Silver Dragon a couple of weeks ago for the first time and didn't think to wash my hands after handling the corms before touching my neck. My neck flamed up in an angry red which lasted for a few hours. Scrubbed in cold soapy water to get it off and stop the irritation as soon as I realized it was irritating my skin, but still took a couple of hours for the itching and redness to go away. love my dragon, but her babies hate me.
It's like Easter egg hunting for adults!! LOL. I'm picking up my Silver Dragon on Sunday....can't wait to repot that guy and hoping to find a corm or two. 😁💚🌱
Great video! You’re the only person out of the videos I’ve watched that mentioned how long it should take to notice growth happening🙏🏻Thank you!
Thank you for this! I was just thinking about planting mine today and didn’t know how to approach the process. Thank you🥰
I always think they look like little coconuts
where do i find the little bins that you have your silver dragon corms in? those look handy! i need!
I just repotted my Alocasia Dragon Scale from it's smaller baby pot into a bigger one. I keep my Alocasia in Lechuza Pon. Sadly I didn't find any corms... Can I do something to promote corm development?
This video was extremely helpful! Thank you .
Yoow finding corms is really like a treasure hunting experience. It is my first time repotting my alocasia sanderiana as it already has grown so huge with little babies around it. While checking the roots, I found these little bulbs in the soil and said, wait a minute... I am sure I saw a vid in yt about corms. Gotta check it out! And here I am, watching your vid because I am not really familiar with alocasias 😂. Thank you so much for this vid. I learned a lot.
Fantastic video thank you so much very helpful! I’m planting my first corms up as we speak! 🌱🤞🌱🙏
just started some corms today thanks to this video! wicked helpful!
Best video on propagating corms I could find!! Thank you!! Just subscribed, can't wait to see more from you! Your plants are beautiful.
Thank you Melissa!! 💚 so helpful! My last attempt was an epic fail!! But now I know better what to do next time 🙌😀💚🪴
Thank you for this easy to follow video
Thanks so much for the information! I have a lot of experience with philodendron and monstera, but recently I picked up my first alocasia on a whim from the hardware store. Brought 'er home, saw the corms and immediately thought "WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY PLANT" lol! And now I know, so thank you :)
Thank you. Just the video that I was looking for! 😊
Thanks for the information
