Direct sunlight can burn the leaves, while too little light stunts growth and fades leaf color. Place your Alocasia indoors a few meters from a window and rotate it occasionally for even growth.

Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings, then water generously until the water drains from the bottom. Preferably use water with a low-lime content and ensure your pot has adequate drainage, for example, by adding \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/deplantrekkers.com\/products\/hydrokorrels-kleikorrels-leca\"\u003ehydroponic clay or Leca\u003c\/a\u003e at the bottom.

Avoid bright midday sun, as it can scorch the beautiful leaves. Place your Skeleton Plant 'Alocasia Polly' near an east- or west-facing window, away from direct sunlight. In darker areas, it grows slowly and the leaf veins may become less pronounced. Do you have a shady corner?

Always check the soil moisture with your finger before watering.

Especially in high humidity, you'll see tiny droplets forming along the leaf edges. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about. To minimize the effect, ensure good air circulation and don't place the plant too close to a heater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"ongedierte\"\u003e Pests\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Spider mites and aphids can sometimes settle on the veins of the Skeleton Plant 'Alocasia Polly'.

Ideally, repot your Skeleton Plant 'Alocasia Polly' into a slightly larger pot every one to two years.

Use our potting soil for aroids, for example, to ensure proper structure and drainage. Water once a week, checking between waterings to see if the top layer has dried slightly. With the Elho 1.5L watering can, you can ensure just the right amount of water without overdoing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"lichtwensen-van-alocasia-portadora\"\u003e Light wishes from Alocasia Portadora\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e This beauty prefers a bright spot, but not direct sunlight. A spot near an east- or west-facing window is ideal to prevent leaf scorch. Provide at least four hours of filtered sunlight per day. Combine your Alocasia with a Monstera Minima or an Aglaonema Silver Bay for a botanical nook where every leaf shines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"veelvoorkomende-problemen-bij-alocasia-portadora\"\u003e Common problems with Alocasia Portadora\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"gele-bladeren\"\u003e Yellow leaves\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eYellow leaves often occur due to insufficient moisture or too much direct sunlight. Make sure you water regularly and that the plant is not in bright midday light. Remove discolored leaves to encourage new growth and increase the humidity around your Alocasia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"plant-is-aan-het-druppen\"\u003e Plant is dripping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e When your Alocasia Portadora drips, this is guttation fluid.

Water regularly and in small amounts to keep the soil slightly moist, avoiding puddles at the bottom of the pot.
