Discovered my love for Alocasia this year after a friend gifted me a pup in January and have lost my mind (in a wonderful way) since, adding 60+ more to the collection since.

Recently I've tried my hand with TC because I love process and learning new things. I bought 30ish from Palmstreet & Orange Lake Nursery that are already in acclimation. I figure I can do this right? 😂 Add in late nights of Etsy shopping from a recommended source in Thailand (newyeargarden)and this is what just arrived at my door. I know I'm knew but these plants look positively amazing.

My home may become a jungle but it will be glorious!

First full cabinet for reference. I have prop boxes and isolation cabinets for recent additions and a new cabinet going up this weekend. All are in Leca/Pon except for the original Regal Shield that started it all 💜

Eventually I'm sure I'll give some away, but for now I love watching all of them grow.

    New year garden you would consider a reputable seller and you have actually received product? I’ve had issues with overseas suppliers so I’m hesitant to buy but their TC selection is incredible

    I am in the same boat— and I love that the bug caught you!
    This is soooo exciting!!!!
    Also, the auctions on Palmstreet are the most addicting situations I’ve ever found myself in— got 6 TC’s of dream plants last week and am over the MOON!!!
    Keep it up, plant bud!!!!

    I would love a garden of Teletubbies, Imagine all those hundreds of different leave shapes and little antennas 🤩

    That’s a funny house motto, considering you’re already home

    😲 thats incredible. Ivw thought about trying my hand at TC but it seems such a daunting process to rise, dip in insecticide and weeks of acclimating etc etc…lol..please keep us updated!!!!
