Alocasia Corms 💚
Time to plant these Black Alocasia Corms ✨️💚 After digging these corms out, I usually let them soak in water for around 24 hours to help the outer skin soften. Once these soak, I can easily remove that outer skin to expose the corm and the root points, making the corms more likely to root faster
