🌱 Secret Garden recommendation:

👉 For healthy roots and steady growth, use Secret Garden professional substrate for Monstera & tropical plants – a balanced mix with peat, pine bark, perlite, and coconut fiber, specially created for plants sensitive to excess water.

Note: Leaves naturally exhibit variegation variations – no two specimens are identical. Small imperfections or dry areas on the edges may appear, caused by transport, environmental changes, or the specific sensitivity of alocasias. These aspects do not affect the plant's viability.
