yellow leaves on Alocasia Baginda
Quick answer
If your Alocasia Baginda has yellow leaves, the most likely cause is: Alocasia baginda commonly drops and yellows older leaves during the lower-light winter months when growth slows and the corm enters a partial rest. Acute yellowing can also follow overwatering, underwatering, sudden temperature change, or the stress of being moved into a new indoor position, with the corm signalling stress through the foliage before growth resumes in spring.
Start here:
- 1. Hold off on heavy watering during the natural cool-season rest and let the substrate dry more between drinks; new leaves should replace yellowed ones when brighter spring light returns.
- 2. Move the plant away from cold draughts, radiators, and cold windowpanes, and keep the temperature above 15 degrees C so the corm does not slip into stress-driven yellowing.
