my frydek corm pushed out 3 white leaves (one cut away bc it melted)

the only green i can see it’s that tiny vein on the side.

can i still hope for some chlorophyll? :c

I bought this as a forgetii but I think it could be a hybrid?

First photo is the youngest leaf and the second one is when it arrived

Hi all, should I separate the baby plant or wait until it bigger?

Thank you all

I have these two plants that both appear to crawl or climb. I don’t have the space to let them crawl and nowhere to hang them near a light source, so up they go. Problem is, I don’t know what they are and I can’t tell them apart. One was in water and the other in 50/50 soil/perlite. I would like to put them in pumice semi-hydro with a tree fern fiber pole. Would this be an appropriate option for either or both plants?

1 неделю назад Решила черенковать монстеру и рассадила по стаканам с водой.

2/3 черенка уже пускают первые корешки (прошла неделя).

1 все еще молчит. Ни одного намека на корни. В его узле присутствует воздушный корень, но могу подозревать, что он гнилой, понять не могу. Помогите пожалуйста, может из-за него не дает корни и надо срезать? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Anyone know what kind of plant this is? It was gifted and I’ve been trying to figure it out for months lol

Here is an Alocasia 'red imperial' that seems to like me, lol. I picked it up a few months ago and its one of my favorite today.

I keep like 12-15 species of alocasia and 4 or 5 i call my 'tall' alocasia. Those include red imperial, zebrini, hilo beauty, longiloba and sometimes Polly types. This one just thrives, while others tall ones struggle.

I know extreme variegation jewel alocasia are all the rage right now. But look how lovely!! The reliable, rich green of the leaves contrasts so nicely with the long slender smooth red-pink petioles, I feel variagation would be a distraction from it's simple elegance.

I have struggled a bit with the taller ones. Since I live in a winter desert, the indoor ambient humidity going below 15% for a couple months a year. I have to use grow tents and my Ikea cabinets as 'humidity hospitals' in January. Otherwise the tall ones live where I can look at them.

This baby has been so happy here! I cant bring myself to repot it because its so happy. Its one of the few living in straight cococoir, most are in my superchunk mix, adjusted with coir for moisture retention. I just got a longiloba in cococoir too and its happy. I may rethink the medium i use, chunky and leca dont seem to keep them as happy as cococoir.......but i'm afraid of rot!

My hilo and zebrini struggle along and wont look good anywhere! In a tent, cabinet, or ambient, they just limp along with 1-3 ugly leaves. I need to learn why.

Anyway, hope you like the photos. I have 'cooler' alocasia, but not more loved!

I just bought 3 plants from Etsy and debating very hard on a 4th that idk if I should get. What did I just do 🤦‍♀️

The first 3 are obvious and what I have bought. The 4th is the one I'm having an internal battle with myself over whether or not I should get it

This has become my favorite plant. Rojo Congo❤️ I keep this in a NE exposure to keep it happy - it doesn’t like to sit too close to the window or fond of grow lights. Idk if this is normal?! I received this in October as a starter plant (it was tiny)☺️
