Alocasia Jacklyn Care Tips:

Light: Provide the Alocasia Jacklyn with bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant foliage. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, optimal growth occurs in moderate to bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Soil: Plant your Alocasia Jacklyn in well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging. A mixture of perlite, orchid bark, and potting soil works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to allow excess water to escape.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water your Alocasia Jacklyn when the top half of soil feels dry to the touch, and avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Use room temperature water to avoid shocking the roots.

Humidity: Maintain moderate to high humidity levels around the Alocasia Jacklyn, as it thrives in humid environments. Regular misting, using a humidity tray, or placing it near a humidifier can help increase humidity levels, especially in dry indoor environments.

Temperature: Keep the Alocasia Jacklyn in a warm environment with temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations, as it prefers stable conditions.

Fertilization: Feed your Alocasia Jacklyn with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during winter when growth slows down.

Pruning: Trim any yellowing or damaged leaves as needed to maintain the plant's appearance. Remove any debris or dead leaves to prevent pests and diseases.
