Your baby guide for Alocasia suhirmaniana: How to grow your jewel!
Congratulations to you! You have a real rarity on your hands. But don't worry, growing your *Alocasia suhirmaniana* is easier than you think. With a little love and these tips, it will thrive:
-
Location:
Your little diva loves light, but hates sunburn. A spot with bright, indirect light is perfect. Think about a spot near an east or west-facing window. This will give it enough energy to grow without burning its precious leaves. -
Watering behaviour:
The be-all and end-all for alocasia: avoid wet feet! Only water when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Waterlogging is the biggest enemy of their roots. A loose, well-drained aroid mix of soil, coconut chips and perlite is their absolute feel-good base. -
Humidity:
As a child of the Indonesian rainforest, it loves tropical conditions. A humidity of 60-80% is ideal. Your *suhirmaniana* will thank you if you spray it regularly, use a humidifier or place it near other plants. A bathroom or kitchen with a bright window are often perfect places! -
Nutrient supply:
During the growing phase from spring to summer, your baby will be hungry. Provide it with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser every 4 weeks. In winter, it takes a short break and needs significantly less fertiliser or none at all.
Don't be shy: Observe your plant, get to know it and be happy about any progress. You are now the personal sponsor of a real natural jewel. That's something very special!
Important note: Like most alocasia, this beauty is also poisonous. Please make sure that curious pets and small children do not nibble on it.
