Instructions d'entretien

Alocasia longiloba requires bright, indirect light and should be kept in a warm, humid environment. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Maintain moderate temperatures and high humidity to ensure optimal growth.

Sol

This plant prefers well-draining, loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and potting soil works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot.

Engrais

Feed Alocasia longiloba with a balanced liquid fertilizer, such as 20-20-20, every 2-4 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the dormancy period.

Rempotage

Repot the plant every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is one size larger and ensure it has good drainage. Repotting is best done in the spring before the growing season begins.

Propagation

Propagate Alocasia longiloba through division or by separating offsets. This is best done during repotting in the spring. Ensure each division has a portion of the rhizome and roots.

Taille

Prune any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health. Pruning can be done throughout the year as needed.

Toxicité

Alocasia longiloba is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation and swelling in the mouth and throat. Handle with care and keep out of reach of children and pets.

Supplémentaire

Ensure the plant is not exposed to cold drafts or sudden temperature changes, as this can cause stress and damage. Regularly mist the leaves to maintain humidity and wipe them down to remove dust.
