Ep. 54 - Alocasia and Colocasia

One person's dramatic tropical plant is another person's bucket of green shovels!

Yeah, don't ask. You’ve seen Elephant Ear tubers for sale with the spring bulbs, and Alocasia x amazonica with the indoor tropicals, but have you ever tried growing these stately Aroids? Not all Taro makes a good plant indoors, and how do you get your Jewel Alocasia to have more than one leaf at a time? Matthew has a potting strategy for that!

Mentioned in this episode:

  • the Aroid substrate we use

  • unconventional potting techniques
