Alocasia Plant

Alocasia (Alocasia spp.) produces large leaves that earn some varieties the common name elephant ear. The tropical-looking plants feature variegated leaves and they quickly spread and cover bare, shady areas in the summer garden. Alocasia grows as a perennial in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 8 through 11, depending on the specific variety. With proper planting and care, the plant can survive winter and provide summer greenery for years.

Alocasia growth can be broken out into two catagories one catagory of Alocasia prefer moist soil (the green leaf types) and the other prefers very well drained soil on the drier side. (Amozonica) Alocasia is commonly referred to as Elephant Ear, the huge green to deep purple leaves bear a likeness to the ears of an elephant. Alocasia will adjust its size according to the amount of sun it receives. The more sun it receives the smaller it will be, the less sun it recieves the larger it will become "to a point". In some cultivars the difference can be staggering. The green leaf cultivars such as Calidora and California love water these types will grow well along side a pond or lake. Other cultivars prefer drier soil and if kept moist will develope crown rot these varieties are Longiloba, Amazonica and other like kinds. When growing the green type in the home landscape we recommend morning sun and afternoon shade in an area with an ample water supply.

This will produce huge, broad leaves in Alocasia Calidora. We recommend a soil rich in organic fertilizer with composted manure. Compost should be worked into the soil at a ratio of 1/40 lb bag per 16 sq. ft. this ratio will produce the best results. A slow release 12 month balanced fertilizer applied in the spring will provide nutrients throughout the growing season. When fall arrives the plants should be allowed to die back by restricting water or the onset of frost at this point the bulbs can be brought in for the winter in zones 7 or above or left in ground in zones 8 and higher. Most Alocasia prefer high humidity and grow larger faster in humid conditions. Alocasia can also be grown as a terrarium plant and tend to thrive in the humid conditions. Amazonica does well in moderate humidity and when placed in the controlled eviroment of a terrarium the results can be spectacular thus giving virtually anyone the ability to tend a piece of the tropics. Alocasia flowers are borne readily in upright clusters throught the growing season as a spath type flower and have a mild to fragrent smell depending on the species. I recommend trying Alocasia Calidora for first time growers but remember to leave room in your garden because you will have to have more.

Site and Soil
Alocasia tolerates both sun and shade, but it performs best when planted in partially shaded garden beds. A site with full morning sunlight but afternoon shade provides a better location than a bed that receives sunlight all day. Alocasia also require soil that remains moist and doesn't dry out completely. Working 2 to 4 inches of compost into the site before you plant helps the soil retain moisture while also supplying organic matter. Avoid sandy soil that drains and dries quickly.

Planting
The rhizomes, or tuberous roots, require frost-free weather to grow and avoid cold damage, so they are usually planted in spring after frost danger passes. You can also start them indoors six weeks earlier in pots, then transplant the actively growing plants outdoors after frost. Plant tubers 2 to 3 inches deep in the prepared planting site or pot. The proper spacing depends on the alocasia variety, but generally the plants require between 3 and 5 feet of space to spread their large leaves.

Basic Care
The primary care consideration is water. Depending on weather conditions, alocasia can require frequent irrigation. Water when the top 1/2 inch of soil begins to dry. Growing in shade and mulching the bed prevents the soil from drying too quickly, but the plants might still require two or more waterings a week during dry weather. Alocasia benefits from slow-release fertilizer applied every two months during the growing season. Use a fertilizer formulated for foliage plants and apply it at the package-recommended rate. Spider mites might infest the leaves. Rinse the pests off the foliage with a sharp spray of water, or treat with a miticide applied according to package directions.

Winter Tips
The cold hardiness of alocasia varies depending on the variety, but most can't tolerate frost. The foliage usually dies back and can be removed in fall. In mild climates that rarely experience prolonged frosts, covering the roots with 2 to 3 inches of mulch usually provides enough insulation for winter protection. Less hardy alocasia varieties, or those grown in cooler areas, must be dug up and overwintered indoors. Store the tubers in dry peat moss in a cool basement or garage, where temperatures remain above freezing, until you replant in spring.

EUFY 11S
Size: 2+8 pack
Used to replace the ones for my EUFY 11S vacuum. They fit just like the ones and got my vacuum back to cleaning really good. Didn’t realize how loud my vacuum had become until I replaced these parts.

Rejuvenates your Robovac, but one caution
I was a little wary buying third-party aftermarket parts for my Eufy Robovac 30c, however, all the parts in this kit are virtually identical to OEM parts. I replaced all three brushes and all three filters and let it loose on my Golden Retriever-inhabited living room. I can honestly say the result was a 50% increase in the amount of fur collected. I suspect that over time there is a loss of performance so gradual that it's easy to not notice. I assume the new filters returned the vacuum power to it's original level of suction was a big factor. When I was browsing through all the available choices here on Amazon, a plastic "ring" kept appearing in many of the product images, however, people did not know what it is for or simply did not get one in their shipment. If you look at the photos I've attached one can see that I did indeed get one and figured out its purpose, to remove fur and/or hair from the horizontal brush. The bottom line is that I would definitely buy this item again. =========== EDIT, four weeks later: Since replacing the main roller brush with the one included with this product, I have experienced several “Roller brush is stuck” shutdowns and alerts. In each case, there has been nothing tangled in the brush and the brush was free to spin. I have to say it’s quite annoying to come home expecting the floor to be cleaned but only to find this error long before the job was finished. Today it gave this error twice in one cleaning cycle. I never experienced this problem with the OEM roller brush.

Euphy works good as new!
Style: 19 Pack
As soon as I opened the package everything looked the same- pre-filters, filters, main brush, and side brushes. I changed the big brush first;the only issue was the new brush body didn't have the white arrows to help aligning but that didn't affect how the brush worked. I changed filter and pre-filter, and finally the side brushes. When I turned on my "Goophy" and tried to let her run the side brushes were a little too (Goophy's side brushes sounded a little louder). I trimmed the side brushes a little and all was well. Goophy didn't want to run herself but it didn't take long for me to figure out it wasn't the new brushes ;just the operator pushing the wrong button. My Goophy Euphy did what she was supposed to do- vacuum the carpet and tile floor. Goophy Euphy still wanted to take the long way to her charging station which was nothing new and easily corrected. Over all the new brushes and filter restored Goophy Euphy back to when we first used her!
