🌞 Light
-
Prefers bright, indirect light.
-
It can handle some direct morning sunlight, but be careful with harsh afternoon rays, as it can scorch the leaves.
-
Low light will cause slow growth and can lead to leggy stems.
💧 Watering
-
Keep the soil slightly moist but never soggy.
-
Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out before watering.
-
Water thoroughly, but make sure excess water drains well from the pot.
-
Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, as it can lead to root rot.
🌬️ Humidity
-
Alocasia Batwing loves high humidity (50–70%).
-
Using a humidifier will also benefit the plant.
🌡️ Temperature
-
Ideally, it thrives in 65–80°F (18–27°C).
🌱 Soil
-
Like most Alocasias, well-draining soil is a must.
-
A good mix: 1 part potting soil, 1 part perlite, and 1 part orchid bark.
-
-
The soil should remain moist but not waterlogged.
🌿 Fertilizing
-
During the growing season (spring through summer), fertilize once a month with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
-
You can also use a slow-release fertilizer if you prefer.
