Care Guide

Caring for Your Alocasia Corazon

Unpacking:

  1. Carefully remove the plant from its packaging upon arrival, taking care not to damage the delicate leaves.
  2. Inspect the plant for any signs of stress or damage due to shipping.

Light:

  • Place your Alocasia Corazon in a location where it can receive bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • In lower light conditions, the plant may grow more slowly, but it can adapt.

Watering:

  • Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm (1 inch) of soil feels dry to the touch.
  • Ensure the pot has adequate drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot.
  • Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when the plant's growth rate slows down.

Humidity:

  • Alocasia Corazon thrives in high humidity. Aim for humidity levels above 60%.
  • Consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a tray filled with pebbles and water to maintain higher humidity.
  • Mist the leaves regularly to keep them hydrated and maintain their lush appearance.

Temperature:

  • Keep the plant in a warm environment, ideally between 18-24°C (65-75°F).
  • Protect the plant from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.

Soil:

  • Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and orchid bark.
  • Repot the plant every 1-2 years to refresh the soil and provide ample room for growth.

Fertilising:

  • Feed your Alocasia Corazon with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
  • Reduce fertilising during the autumn and winter months when the plant is less active.

Pruning:

  • Regularly remove any yellow or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's health and appearance.
  • Prune leggy growth to encourage a fuller, more compact shape.

Pests and Diseases:

  • Monitor for common pests such as spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  • Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal diseases like powdery mildew.

Troubleshooting:

  • Yellow Leaves: Often a sign of overwatering. Adjust your watering schedule and check for proper drainage.
  • Brown Leaf Edges: Typically caused by low humidity or underwatering. Increase humidity levels and ensure consistent watering.
  • Slow Growth: May indicate insufficient light. Move the plant to a brighter location with indirect sunlight.

Propagation:

  • Alocasia Corazon can be propagated through division. During repotting, carefully separate the plant's rhizomes and plant them in individual pots.

With the right care and attention, your Alocasia Corazon will flourish, becoming a captivating centrepiece in your indoor garden. Enjoy the lush, tropical beauty this exceptional plant brings to your home or office.

Plant Pot Sizes: Pot sizes may vary by approximately +/- 1cm. To ensure a proper fit, we recommend selecting a decorative pot that is 1-2cm larger than the stated plant pot size. For instance, if you purchase a plant in a 17cm pot, a 18 - 19cm decorative pot would be ideal.

Quarantining: All our houseplants are regularly sprayed with a preventative systemic bug treatment. We do our best to ensure a bug free growing environment however sometimes these can unfortunately be missed, as such we always recommend quarantining plants when they first enter your home and checking them upon arrival for bugs.
