Alocasia Rhizome Propagation

Exciting news! I can now confirm from my personal experience that you can chop up the rhizome (the long part of the plant that grows under the potting mix that the roots are attached to) of an Alocasia into pieces and regrow new plants like the motherf*ing goddess of nature you were born to be. Before trying this on my Alocasia Cuprea I had never seen this done on a Jewel Alocasia before, but the best way to learn about plants is to experiment and I was feeling frisky.


As the old saying goes: "If you love something hard enough you'll chop it up and put it in sphagnum moss. If it comes back, it was meant to be. "

Since pictures speak 1,000 words, I’ll show you how I did it below (doesn’t #4 look like a little one-eyed monster with it’s arms up and hairy armpits?):
