All I can say is WOW!!! Your plants are gorgeous!! I'm glad to hear you talk about the realities of plant care and matching the plant's care with your willingness to do certain things and what you dislike (floor cleanup). That makes caring for plants much more realistic...and in reality...more fun. It feels less obligatory. Loving the long form video BTW. Thanks for sharing your collection.
Thank you so much for all those kind words! I really appreciate it. Actually, I'm probably going to steal some of them for my bio because I've had trouble putting my approach to plant care in the right words. 🤣 Thanks again! 💚💚💚
I love how real and low maintenance you get! This is what I need!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed. 💚💚💚💚
I'm torn between hoping my Alocasias will grow as big as yours and worrying about where I'll put them if they do! 😍😂 I'm in the process of transferring all of mine to self-watering pots, some in pon and some in soil, and they do seem to love it!
Wow, you must really have a green thumb! I'm just getting back into some house plants. So I really appreciate the information you give. Thank you! 😊
First time seeing your channel...And I AM SO GLAD I DID!!!! I am a new plant mommy and love my babies but I am still trying to figure them out...especially living here in Arizona. I have a Monstera Deliciosa (right?) anyway, I have slowly introduced it to the sun...Which oddly she doesn't like. It seems she likes cooler temperatures...but not the sun...I still haven't figured that out. Anyway, I will be watching more of your channels, because when I grow up, I want to have a house full just like you...(I'm 62!) 🙂
I really appreciate how you organized your video. I felt like you were just having a convo with me. ❤️❤️❤️ I'm so glad that I found your RUclips channel
I also grow my alocasias in self watering pots with very chunky mix of leca, perlite, vermiculite, seramis, pumice, orchid bark and peat moss. They do well like this.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Alocasia is one genus I’ve struggled with, and I’ve never believed the one in, one out theory. Your care videos are very helpful, I appreciate you!
Thank you for this amazing advice! So tired of all the "Oh, this plant is supposed to drop leaves" stuff I see online. I feel like healthy leaf dropping is only really a thing for outdoor plants, or plants that can be propagated by leaves and are trying to spread (burro's tail). Totally subscribing!
Thank you for talking about the different alocasia needs. Love how in tune you are with your plants and know their behaviors and preferences.
You are so welcome!
I do use beneficial bugs specifically for spider mites monthly as a preventative in the summer since I live in FL and so far I never had a spider mite problem an I have 18 different Alocasias. For me, it works. The other parts of seasons I just wipe down my leaves when I water all of my plants. Love your information on Alocasias.
You are adorable! Love your real approach to plant care. As low key as you are, it’s obvious that you really know what you’re talking about. Thank you so much for this video!
Love your vid! Just wanted raise my hand 🙋♀️ as a person who after a spider mite outbreak on my alocasias used beneficial bugs that eradicated the problem in days and I’ve never had any issues since then in my 200+ plant collection. They’re all I trust for pest management now. I never use ladybugs though, as there’s some ecological issues with using them many places, and yep - they fly away. But predatory mites and lacewing - they are winners! 🏆
So happy you are doing long-form videos! You come across very low-key which is great!
Just spot on!
Really happy to run across this video. I picked up a variegated “Lucifer” from Home Depot last week. There were 3 plants in it, HUGE pot. Two are variegated, one of those has reverted but the smallest is all variegated. I’m not a huge Alocasia person and just have a silver dragon that I’ve been battling with. I put the two variegated plants in semi hydro so I’m glad to see you approve. But not before harvesting the 10 corms in the pot:)
I was starting to struggle with what to do with some of my plants. They're doing ok but I still felt they weren't 100%. This video was absolutely amazing and I now know what I need to do to help them out! We have similar tastes in plants too! I would love to see more about the different types of alocasia that you have too but I'm looking forward to the different projects you have planned!
OMG! I love your videos. Thank you so much for them
Thank you!
beautiful plants thank you
I love your plants. They look amazing 🤩
Keeping it real! Love this video.
Your plants are beautiful!!
I just loveeeee your alocasias, they are divas!!
BRAVO! Your plants are 🤩🤩🤩! I hope to have that one day.
EXCELLENT VIDEO, THANK YOU!
Love this
OMG I'm so happy I'm stubbked upon you! You ROCK! THANKS for keeping it real and low key!
Ooo I love that feather duster. Need to go buy one. thank you for the tip
Feather duster..... 😎Brilliant!
Holy Smokes! Your plants are gorgeous! Thanks for the information on alocasia care.
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants lovely collection beautiful
Love that tip about the feather duster! I've had lots of run-ins with bugs and tried all the sprays, but what I've decided is that the most important thing is mechanical removal. I like to spray my plants with the shower hose, to get all the buggies off. I have found that is way more effective than any pesticide...and WAY less work! But I love the feather duster because that means I wouldn't have to even move my plants! ha ha...getting one today
Love this. Thanks so much. I love alocasia, but struggle a lot. This is very helpful.
i just got an alocasia polly and youve got me excited!
I am very curious about the feather duster, it seems like such a good tool!
But wouldn't you have to clean it once in a while? And how would you go about cleaning it?
Just started with Alocasia. Thank you for the Great Advice
❤
Your plants are beautiful thank you for sharing your tips and advice for caring for them I am grateful ❤❤❤
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Thank you for the feather dusting tip. I love alocasia. I am excited to implement some of the tips you shared with my plants.

I'm just starting to get into Alocasias and yours rule!
Your plants are beautiful 😍😍😍
Love your plant collection and this knowledge 🫶🏽🪴🌱
Wow! Awesome video! Great information! 👍🏾
Great info I can use. I need my love of alocasia to overcome my fear of dust mites!
Great video! Your plants are gorgeous!!
you have the most beautiful home, you plants are incredible, you take great care of them!
Excellent video. Answered all my questions, covered everything. And... you are a delightful hostess. Love your gorgeous plants, by the way.
Thank you for this. Just got my first Alocasia Polly ♥️✨
Can’t wait to watch her grow.
Lovely Alocasias. I always struggle with Alocasia and thanks for sharing some important tips. I'll start using my duster .. ☺
😍 your collection is amazing! I wanted to incorporate more alocasia into my collection and this information helped me tremendously!
A feather duster is a brilliant idea! Wow!
I saw your collection/family and immediately subscribed! Gorgeous plants; absolutely stunning…
Teach me your ways 😩
I
Love your laugh…and your content.
I like your feather duster idea. Plants I can still lift I carry to the shower and stroke each leaf as I shower them. I take a wash cloth to my big plants, but if a feather duster works for you, Hallelujah! My poor old back thanks you for the tip. God bless you.
Thank you, and I love your energy!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 😊
I’m back, so happy I found your video. I’ll probably watch it over and over because it is so informative and I admire all your plants and I want mine to be like yours. Love, love, love your video. The plant site you referred me to is great and the prices are very reasonable. Thank you!!!!
I love your content so much and I am excited you created a RUclips!! Your videos aren’t full of annoying fluff, cleanly edited and your collections is amazing.
I would love to recommend you doing a video talking about how you propagate your cuttings, if you do.
I would also love a video on what plants thrive in lechuza pon vs which are best in a soil medium
I would love a video on your care tips for your different anthuriums, like you did with this Alocasia video !
Have a great week ❤
Thank you so much for the kinds words. Those a great video ideas. I can definitely do a video about which plants i recommend Pon for and which ones I believe do better in soil! 😊
New plant mommy here!! I can’t get enough of your Alocasias and monsteras 🤭 you’re the reason I bought an Adansonii and a deliciosa…now this vid is tempting me to get an Alocasia…I think the feather 🪶 duster and dusting it off like a maid in a novela sold me 😂🤭 Anyway great content and new subby ❤
Wonderfully funny.😀
So glad you’ve decided to make a longer video! Thank you! Very informative.
Thank you so much! 😊
Your plants are AWESOME!!!!!
Thank you!!
This is my first time of your channel. I have a black velvet and it's flowering. You are just such a beautiful human and a wealth of knowledge. I absolutely love your personality and how you interact with your plants. 💗
This was immensely helpful information! And I have actually already had great success with Alocasia and it's one of the genus I have the most of. I also have found they LOVE pon and they responded very well to fertilizer water in addition to the slow release already in the pon. I am jealous of your relative humidity! In Minnesota, my house is actually around 45% in the summer, but much lower in the winter. I love Jewel Alocasia for being able to be hardy during those dry winters! Thanks!
Ahh you are so enchanting 😍 absolutely looove your alocasias! I'm still trying to figure out mine, but I'm also starting to notice the different requirements for each of them, so your video is really useful 😊 and I love the tip about duster! Thank you for sharing 💖✨🪴
Fantastic alocacia care video, super helpful too see how u handle issues that come up like slow growth , yellow leaves. ) . Thanks so much!
The duster looks so fluffy and your hand movement is so satisfying... I want to be dusted too
It’s the bam, bam, bam, bam, bam for me! I am so excited to see my babies grow after stumbling on this video ❤
Great informative full length video !
Thank you! 😊
Brilliant! Great tips. Beautiful collection. Thank you.❤
Thanks for watching!
Sooooooooi informative, I saw a few I wanted to rescue and figured let me get some info about the plant first.
I love your video!! Thanks for the helpful advise.. as a newbie in alocasia, i now found the reasons why my alocasia isnt happy. Your repotting seems a game changer for me. Wish me luck 🙏
Thank you for confirming my suspicion that my Alocasia Tiny Dancer losing a leaf after growing another one was not normal! I didn’t think it was either! All I could think was “how will my plant ever get any bigger or make any progress if that’s the case?”. Turns out she is root bound and has roots coming out the bottom of the pot! I’m hoping this is the reason why she’s unhappy because otherwise I’m stumped. She has 12 hours of bright indirect light and high humidity with constant air flow. This video cleared up so much!
So happy to have found your channel! Delightful and educational, and your home is absolutely gorgeous!! Excited to watch more
Thanks so much! 😊
They are the best I've ever seen, indoors
Omg I just found you and am so happy I did! I love the pace of your video. Direct and to the point, plus you’re warm and friendly. New subscriber!🎉
Gorgeous gorgeous plant and plant gal
WOWSER! I can only hope & pray that my baby Alocasias grow up to be half the stunning plants you have. Thank you for all the great information. Especially, about the fertilizer you use & that you use it for every watering 1/3 strength. Because I heard they were big eaters.
How in the world have I never seen your channel!!! I love your energy and your plants are just magnificent! So pretty and healthy and I also love your hair lol Started following on IG as well your going to love the dragons breath its one of my favs for sure it grows super fast and the leaves size up so nicely as it matures. Have a wonderful day!!!❤❤😊
These are great tips! I have acquired a dying alocasia and it needs some serious help. I don't want to do trial and error to see what works. You have some great advice and really prove it with your beautiful plants!
I bought my first Alocasia today (Dragon Scale). Hopped on RUclips to get some care tips and clicked on you. So glad I did. Great video! I subscribed. Will start binging your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I enjoyed the duster segment, haha. Awesome personality! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos
Wow beautiful Plants ^^
Like it
My friend, thank you for good sharing
Thanks for visiting
I will try the feather dusting tip. Thanks
Those look insane lol holy cow! I'm blown away, and really hope I can help my alocasias to be that happy! Definitely going to try the duster as it's much less labor intensive than my current de-pesting process. Incredible
This is one of the better alocasia care videos on RUclips! Great job
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
So jealous of your lighting !!! I am growing my alocasia collection. I just splurged and got an albo odora - so many corms, lets hope they are variegated lol!!
I wish I was your friend and could look at your whole collection 😊😊
What a great resource ✨🪴❤️
Thanks so much for this helpful video I found out from this that my Alocasia is wilting because it was in a pot that is too big! Hopefully it survives in the smaller pot I put it in
I love your alocasia collection very much. They're so beautiful am a bit jealous. My collection is not so bright, but I can grow it outdoors. Growing them outdoors is a different thing all together. Only hardy species, all giants and countless offshoots every year to trade with other hobbyists..
Thanks for this video! Your plants look awesome :) I also agree that alocasia do NOT drop leaves - unless there's something wrong with them.
Greetings from Germany ❤
Your alocasia collection is so nice. Just. Watched this first video. Great content. So far. 😊.
Great !!! Love your alocasias amazing, especially the feather duster cheers from Australia😊
Many thanks! 😊
Wowwwwwwwwwwww these plants are amazing 😍😍😍
Thanks a lot! 😊
You have tye best video on care omg.
Thank you so much! 😊
