I just realized I forgot to show the variegated Frydek lol. I moved it to my window ledge front and center to get bright light. I had moved it to be beside my regular Frydek but it dropped a leaf pretty quickly from lack of light. So it's getting a lot of direct sun now. It should perk back up soon. My jacklyn is on the other shelf under a barrina T5 and I have a black velvet I didn't show in my cabinet :)

This was such perfect timing! I repotted my Silver Dragon today and got 3 corms 🎉 I put them in a small clear nursery pot with moist spaghmum moss, then covered with Press N Seal. I’m trying a new spot for momma, 6-8’ from our West window (corms are on that windowsill)… I’ve been scared all day wondering if I did a good job 😂 Then this video posted! Thank you Melissa 🫶🏼

I love the longer videos 😁
I'm one that kinda gave up on Alocasia. I have 1 still inside and 1 I put outside.

I love when you have longer videos. Looking forward to it

Omg, your alocasia are massive. I'm over here trying to graduate from the 3 leaf club lol. I think they need more light, also a little more water than I normally give.

[suesteele]

My Frydek is getting a new leaf and I’m so excited! Thanks for all your tips!

Two tips for using stretchy cord: pre-stretch or it might stretch out. When tying last knot, make another pass through the whole. That will keep it knotted.
