🌱 Secret Garden recommendation:

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

Note: The leaves naturally show variations in variegation – 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 do not affect the plant’s viability.
