Provide bright but indirect sunlight. A little direct morning sun will be okay especially if your Alocasia is set back from the window a bit- intense direct sun can burn the leaves.
Water before the potting mix is completely dry. We recommend bottom watering (see General Care).
Remove any excess water from the saucer after watering.
Alocasias are fairly sensitive to changes in their environment. They tend to droop when stressed but they will bounce back if you're attentive to their needs.
Alocasias love humidity and will appreciate being near a small diffuser or humidifier if your air is dry.
Plan to water less during the winter.
Fertilize once in spring and once during the summer with an all-purpose organic indoor powder fertilizer or use a liquid fertilizer each time you water spring through summer.
Not pet safe.
