Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Colocasia?, 1 by tropicbreeze

Went out and bought another A. reginula. This new one I put in a 300mm pot that I'd half filled with lumps of weathered limestone. Then a bit of broken down leaf litter. Finally the plant with the original soil in the pot. I did spread the soil and the roots out. I'll see how it goes over the next few months, and then when the monsoon sets in.

While getting that one I also bought a different Jewel Alocasia (in the photo). It's now in the same set up as the first one, pot half full of gravel and the rest is a bit of bark and the soil from its pot.
