We suggest growing the the Alocasia macrorrhiza in a place where it's sheltered by frost; when all dangers of late freezings are gone we can locate them outdoors. Let's avoid exposing apartment plants to direct sunlight, which could damage the leaves, especially during the hottest months of the year. We should prefer a bright position, but with filtered light.This plant prefers shady places, therefore avoid exposing it to direct solar rays.
Cultivation Alocasia macrorrhiza
The Alocasia macrorrhiza is a succulent plant. This plant in the winter assumes a green colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 80 cm high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. Growing they develop a round-shape shrub.
Fertilize Alocasia macrorrhiza
In the spring let’s use a fertilizer every 15-20 days, melting it in the water which we use to irrigate; we can choose a fertilizer for flowering plants or green plants, rich with nitrogen and potassium to favour a balanced development of the new vegetation. Otherwise we can, if we want to, use a slow release fertilizer, to add to the soil, every 3-4 months.
Water Alocasia macrorrhiza
Water regularly, every The using about 3-4 glasses of water , watering the ground deeply and keeping it always slightly humid, but avoiding to soak it too much. To avoid that a scarce drainage could favour the development of fungal diseases, let's remember to avoid leaving water in the saucer.
Pests Alocasia macrorrhiza
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.
Mold Alocasia macrorrhiza
These apartment plants need to be located in a balanced soil, which maintains humidity for long. Every 2-3 years let’s remember to repot the plants in a slightly larger container.
