    I just got one Home Depot $20. I was shocked. And it had 3 in pot it’s in coco coir. I’m tempted to leave it-because it’s so healthy

    Wow 😳 we can all agree that it makes us so happy when, after so much struggle, our plants decide not to kill themselves and become beautiful. All the stress you went through was worth it 🥹💖✨. Currently, I received two corns of Alocasia Tandurusa (Jacklyn) by mail from a friend in England (I'm from Argentina) and I'm in the process of seeing if I can grow them, wish me luck 💗

    I just bought this two weeks ago it was gorgeous when I brought it home. Now I am seeing yellowing of the leaves, losing the original too. I just don’t know what it wants and I think to much change to fast will make it worse. Ugh. Yours is breathtaking!

      This one actually died hahah my current alocasia Jacklyn looks even better than this one though! You really have to be patient with this plant. Mine usually lose all of their leaves and it takes months for it to grow properly. Less water, more humidity if you can. Just keep that corn alive and it WILL grow 🌱

    April, love your channel, so informative and fun to watch. What are you currently using to fertilize your allocation Jacklyn with? I also have a Jacklyn that I got from a big box store. I am struggling with and tried using semi hydro mix of pon and leca. But lost all her leaves and the original corm turned to mush.😢 Now I am propagating from corms.🤦🏾‍♀️

    I realize this video is about two months old, but I found one (actually they had several on the rack) at Wally-World on clearance sadly because we all know how they “care” for all the houseplants. They just can’t take care of all the plants in the garden center properly. They just drench everything and let them sit it water. Anyway, I got excited because I loved the stems and decided to take one home and try nursing it back to health. So far I’m failing.

    I just received a Jacklyn that came in fluval, could I put the nursery pot into a cup where the only the bottom of the fluval is in water? Like a semi hydro setup? I really want this plant to live! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

    • @aprilbrooks

      Yes. Do that. That sounds perfect just make sure to sprinkle some water on the top kinda daily to prevent it from drying out at the top! Sorry for the late reply! 🫶🏽
