@leafjournal: part 2 of buy-again vs regret, because apparently we all needed to process this together 🪴 The olive tree hurt the most — it was never going to work indoors, and nobody at the shop said a word. 🔖 save this before your next impulse buy 📩 send it to the friend eyeing an alocasia right now · 👇 what's your most expensive plant regret? #houseplants #plantreview #PlantTok #plantsforbeginners #plantcare
Im convinced all alocasias come pre-shipped with spider mites as a treat. 🤣🤣🤣

Did your Rubber Plant grow slow or somewhat fast I propagated one and was disappointed in its slow growth

Alocasias were my gateway plant. I went insane for a few years collecting so many and spending so much money. Alocasias also broke me and now I don’t care about any of my plants. 🤣

Not me already stressed bc I bought an Alocasia (I’m so intimidated, but wanted to try it anyways) and now wondering if it needs to stay on its own shelf across the room from my other babies for “when” not if she gets spider mites 😳😳

My Alocasia Regal Shield Week 3. New baby leaf just came. She was in rough condition when I got her for $9.21 I’m just glad she’s here. I’m checking fiercely for bugs several times a day.

lol I have an alocasia obsession and 90% of my collection are alocasias. They can be quite easy if you put them in a self watering pot (slightly root bound is best) under a grow light. Bonus points if they’re in a terrarium for humidity and protection from any potential pests from your other plants!

The amount of people who don’t know your supposed to spray and clean your plants for things like spider mites and other pests baffles me 😭 I have 3 thriving alocasias
