How to raise

illumination

Alocasia is relatively light-loving and is suitable for being placed in places with sufficient sunlight, but it is also shade-tolerant and it is best not to be exposed to direct sunlight. Therefore, it is best to raise it in a place with sufficient but not too strong sunlight. If the sunlight is too strong, it is recommended to use a black net to block the sunlight.

temperature

The suitable growth temperature of Alocasia esculenta is 20 to 32 degrees. When the temperature is too high in summer, it is best to move the plant indoors and increase the amount of watering appropriately to achieve a cooling effect.

Watering

Taro is relatively drought-tolerant, so it is not suitable for excessive watering. In the hot summer, you can water the plants once a day to cool them down. In the cold winter, watering once a week is enough, or you can wipe the leaves with a damp cloth.
