Alocasia Bambino Care Tips and Propagation - WITH UPDATES!
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 12. 2021
- The alocasias bambino looks very similar to the amazonica and polly. This species is the tiniest one out of them and has some very striking foliage, which I am not shy about showing detail views in this video. I share the care tips and propagate them in many ways, showing updates at the end of the video. This is a surprisingly easy alocasia and its beauty is often times overlooked. I highly recommend this species for every growers home conditions.

Love the way you say hello to all the surprise/baby plants.
😀
I learned more about propagating alocasias in the first two-thirds of this video alone than I've learned from the countless other videos I've watched on here. Thanks for being so informative and passionate about your plants.
😀😀 happy to hear that
Ikr?
I love how involved and hands on you are! You are super engaging, informative and honestly my favorite plantuber! I love that your updates are in the same video too!!
Thank youuu 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙈

No one has better propagation outcomes than him. His comfort level and confidence with cutting plants are the best.
I just waited patiently for the outcome. I knew it would be great and I was not disappointed.
Thank youu 😀
I am glad I subscribe to you! When spring comes I’m going to check mine. I’ve had it 3 years now and it’s doing well. I paid $1 for it off the clearance rack. It was rotting. I cleaned it and loved it and got rewarded - thank you for sharing this today.
And you probably the best at explaining and showing us the methods of plant care I have seen on you tube.
Thank youu
Agree that alocasias like more light than most websites say. The baby bambinos are so cute!
This is probably the healthiest alocasia I have ever seen! Learned so much!
😀😀
Literally every time I watch one of your videos, I learn something. I thought polly was the common name for the Amizonica; I didn't realize there were 3 different plants. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Yeahhh Amazonica is the largest one
Så intressant att se och mycket bra informationer. Tack igen😊🙏❣
I love how you said “hello baby bambino” I would have said the exact same thing. So cute. Awesome video!! I can’t wait to try this.
🙈 hope you have as much success 😀
I’m so so happy to have found your CZcams. You are an excellent teacher. Thanks you.
Thank you 😌
What a beautiful Alocasia Bambino....
Thank you for sharing and stay safe....
Always a treat watching you,thanks so much sharing your knowledge,love and appreciate it👍💚💜💕
I loooove the updates! It's amazing to see the plant grows up!
Haha this is why I love what I do. Seeing them babies sprout and grow.
Thank you for all of these videos!!! I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Thank you ❤️❤️
Wow great job! They look beautiful!
the love you have for your plants is so amazing! very inspirational, thank you for your teachings
🥰
The bottom of these leaves are just wow. Probably one of my favorite aroids. So adaptable!
Yeah its a surprisingly easy alocasia
Great video. Alocasia propagation videos are such a feast. And wow... cutting the bulb of full-growth alocasia, only found in Sean's video. I will never bear to do it.
I watch so many plant videos but yours are just the best. I love how detailed you are.
Thank you 🥰
I just bought one of these knowing NOTHING about it so I'm glad I watched this video 😂 I'm going corm digging later
Yaye 😀 give it some time if its a young plant. Usually corms appear in abundance when the plant matures more
Great video!! So useful and well explained 👍Thank you 🙏
A lot of good planting tips. I'll move mine to the backyard patio where it will get more light. Originally I kept it indoor east facing window and it grows fine but slow. Will see whether the new location will make it strive better.
Fertilize lightly and treat for spidermites often (they really can set a plant back)
The most incredible video on Alocasias I’ve ever seen. Thank you n
Whoaaa thank you 😀
you really give complete contemt on a very specific need on a specific plant, thanks
😀😀
Woooow. This plant is actually like a bird. Has eggs . Beautifull
Your potting mixes have made such a difference to my plants!
😀😀 happy to hear!
Thanks for the info. I have a Bambino and did not know any of this about them. Very helpful.
Theres a lot to them, so much fun to tinker with 😅
This is a really great video. i learned so much that i'm very excited to try. It's so great that you wait to show the results. Not many others do that. Thank you.
😀
I truly love ❤️ your video, especially u showed the results after few months.Really enjoyable to watch. Thank you 😊
Thank youu ❤️
This is amazing! I don't think I am brave enough but I am in awe. Thank you so much for all your tips!
Me too
Love your garden
I bought Amazonica yesterday and I fell in love with it
😀😀
Hi Sean, thank you for sharing. Just bought two of this plants today and I potted them up together not knowing the nobby nobby burbs in the soil but I chuck them out.
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants collection lovely garden have a blessed day
🙏🏽🙏🏽
This was incredible!
Thank you ❤️
I enjoyed you video so much! Extremely engaging and I feel I am standing right next to you. I followed everything you taught and wow! It’s not stressful at all! Thanks! I am a big fan!
Thank youu 🥰
South Africa - I found a Dragon Alocasia - and before I purchased it I investigate the care and propagation - you gave such a good and detailed description. I am going to get one.. Thank you
Good luck with it 😀 south Africa is so beautiful
I have the poly and thank you for this video, I now have some confidence to propagate them.
Yeahh the propagation is the same 😀
I have learned so much from you,im always excited watching your propagating videos coz it always has an update i just love how you reallyake an efforts to make you videos really satisfying ending, im not yet done watching all your videos but i always love to watch your propagation and updates videos
Thank youuu. Ill be making more of those
@@onlyplants thank you 😊💗 by the way im your subscriber/supporter from Philippines
Yayeee
super love this video. Love this plant keep up the great work!!!!
Thank youu
You answered so many questions that I had!
🥰🥰
OMG you're a saviour! I was just wondering what to do to my Alocasia portodora because it has grown so much over the years that it's growth point is 20cm over the soil. It's really difficult to find information on what to do when the ...tuber? gets too big for your pots. The answer is right here get to cutting! A wholehearted thank you from Finland
Its a lot of fun propagating and cutting them up. Especially since its almost spring where you are 😀
Do often see an alocasia on utube with more than 3 leaves. This one is lovely 😍
Valuable information, just bought one for myself ❤
😀😀
Honestly you laughter is the best thing about this video. 😅
😃
Love this. Thank you for sharing
Thank you
My Amazonica gave me bulbs that I propagated in a shallow pont of a taperware . They all sprouted and then I potted them in potting mix and they are just fine! Lots of indirect bright light is the trick for bigger leaves! Thank you Sean for this super informative video!!!🙏🙏
🥰
Благодарю сердечно!Очень интересно! Душа радуется : столько красоты!))Подписалась!))
I enjoyed the detailed video on the breeding, care, and sprout growth process of Alocacia Bambino. I also raise a Bambino in a balcony garden and a guppy room at home, but It died grow in the balcony garden a while ago. I think it was because winter in Korea was cold. I think it'll be hard to cover it with Vinyl in the winter. I'll have to wait until the sprouts sprout next spring.
You a legend Sean
🙈🙈
Very inspiring! Thanks for sharing.
😀
I love the veining on the bottom of the leaves so much! I just got two baby Bambinos and they are already so dear to me. I think that they're intimidating to purchase because they're so gorgeous
❤️❤️
OMG, I just ordered an amazonica. I didnt realize that it was the king of them. Thanks for the care tips!
Haha yes that is one rewarding plant
Love your channel!
Thank you Khloe 🥰
I just purchased 3 plants yesterday. They were on clearance. I moved some of the dirt around and wow there was a corn sitting right there. I love your channel!
Yaye plant the corm hopefully something will sprout
Hello!
I am your newest subscriber!!!
Great delivery and interaction!! Looking forward to more!
Hello!! Thank you 😀
Thanks for your advice
OMG The spider mites. 🙄
Slow release pest control in the so a is brilliant idea.
Gonna do that! Thanks!
Be careful when dealing with chemicals, dont touch without glove 😀
My 2 alocasia pollys have 13 & 14 leaves. I absolutely love them. Thinking of converting to DIY Pon after dormancy.
Thank you for all your videos! I love them! You do such an amazing job. You can tell you love what you do.
I always have to repot plants when I get them unfortunately here, they are always so full of gnats from the store.
Woooh… maybe consider neem oil soil drench it really deals damage to their population.
😂😂😂 Yes, I am very glad to be subscribed to the channel...Always learning new things from you 💕☺️
Thank youu
Very beneficial sharing, Tq Sean🤗
Oh 👌 Wow thank you so much for sharing this information about this beautiful 🪴 plant
Thank youu
Excellent video! 💚💚💚
😀😀
Thank you and Hi from CANADA.
Hello ❤️
Taro is a colocasia, but they're very close to alocasias. I love those baby alocasias you got. Your videos are always so inspiring.
Yeahhh I would love to do colocasia videos soo
Thanks for doing this video on Alocasia propagation! There's definitely not enough information out there and I'm so worried about making my corms sprout. Nice variegated Musa Ae Ae in the background!
😀😀
I didn’t know bambino could get this big!
Hehe Ive seen bigger ones too. But the Alocasia amazonica can get human sized.
@@onlyplants Yeah in Asia I wish it got that big in NZ. Definitely Asian countries maybe Australia maybe can reach that size :)
I'm glad I subscribe to your channel.
Watching from the Philippines.
Thank you 🙌🏽
Wow! This is one of the most successful propagation videos you have done I think 😁. I don't own many alocasias (just 2) because they always die on me, or the leaves turn yellow when a new one appears, and I don't enjoy that behavior haha. But after watching this video you have inspired me to give them a second chance :D
The trick is to have many clumps in one pot so you can enjoy a thicker foliage. But frequent pruning is to be expected 😀
I found an Alocasia Polly for a $1.98. It it’s in good condition, but it was pretty water logged in the soil. So I got rid of the wet soil, in the nursery pot, and put new dry soil. I have it on top of my aquarium close to a window next to my Fiddle Leaf fig. I love the look of these plants. It brings a nice esthetic to the home.
Hope it thrives soon 😀 it was a good move to transplant it into something more draining
Woww I love Alocasia☘️🍀🌳🌿
Wow! Thank you!
Haha "this is where the party begins"... yaaasss.. I love it..
I learned so much from this one video!! I see those little balls all through the soil of my plant and didn’t know what they were. Now I’ll go pluck them off. Lol
Haha yes this is my favorite propagation video so far
so cool
very interesting, as usual! le bonjour du Sud de la France
Thank you. Bonjour!
I haven't seen your videos as if late and I'm sorry I haven't because you are such a amazing plant youtuber ... I'm still terrified of my new alocasia Polly that I got about a week ago but so far so good
Thank youuu. Hope you are doing well. Ive been busy as well!
Thank you 🌱🌿🍃
Thanks for sharing. Very informative. I'll apply what you demonstrated us. Kudos!--Phils.
😀
Hi, I bought a alocasia polly not knowing anything about it. Unfortunately bringing it home one of the top leaf broke off in the car so I thought maybe if I put the leaf in water it might root but a couple of weeks in it hasn't. Now that I've seen your propagating video, I'm realising that it won't work. Unless you know different, the leaf is not going anywhere. Thanks for showing the corms. I'll have to look under the roots and see if mine have any.
Ive learned a lot from these. I have 2 bambinos and took some corms without pulling out the plant from the pot.
What Ive noticed is that they can endure morning direct sunlight but the leaves become slightly whiter (or like foggier looking surface). I kept one under bright indirect sunlight and the leaves retain their glossy green surface
Interesting… perhaps they are slightly bleached or producing less chlorophyll as a result of intense light. But yes they thrive in bit of direct light and will grow twice as fast
Thanks for video. I have one Alocasia Polly, loved it, but it started to loose leaves. Didn't know what's wrong I do. I'll try your recommendations, hope I can save them.
I just bought Mine 5days ago..The leaves tips were browning a sign of stress..iv repotted and hopefuly she cheers up again...such a cuttie
Yaye 😀 they like more light than we think. And balance watering so they are ever so slightly lightly moist. Never water logged or dried completely
@@onlyplants yes indeed..im so watchful for her
I looooove ur Videos!!!!! Thank u so much and keep in making more 🤍 the fact that ur videos are so authentic and you are so urself in the videos, you get so excited sometimes that u jump from
One topic to another 😂 but we love it, we love ur video. And I love that u show all the updates in one video 😊. Also I just got myself the same plant. I had no idea what it was but i had a feeling it would be a great and easy plant so thanks for all the info 😊. Also, my one is going to have it own baby in the same pot so I am very excited 😆. I have a question, do they like their pot to be a bit tight or not they prefer it to be very big ?
Thank you, I interrupt myself sometimes lol, and only notice it during editing. For pot sizes, always go with tight. They actually dont have a lot of roots
You found lots of diamonds in there 💚🌱💚 also broken my heart when I see you pulling the leaves 😨
🙈🙈
You are the best went is came to explain about eney plants love it's 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😢🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
Haha 😀❤️
Thanks for this video. I am not good at growing any kind of Alocasia. I hope I will be in future.
Give them a try again 😀 follow my tips on light, potting media and watering
My alcocasia bambino grows AMAZING in my ikea greenhouse!
😀😀
Cool! I’ve never seen a matured one….
Hi Sean
I’m michelle from Malaysia.
Love this video, detailed and easy to follow. Going to do the same with my plant. Hope to get as many babies as yours. Thank you for showing the way to propagate it.
I noticed that you didn’t put any soil in the pot before you put the plant in. Is this a better way? Cause I usually see soil in pot, then plant then more soil.
Hope to watch more of your videos. Happy planting!
I use as little potting mix as possible for the plants 😀
@@onlyplants
Thank you
Hi Sean very informative video...👍👍...Can you please do a care video on the different varieties of Asplenium/ Bird nest ferns?..🙏🙏
Ive got 1 video coming up soon on the crocodile fern
@@onlyplants oh cool...It will be helpful for sure..😁👍👍👍
🤔u have inspired me to propagate my Buddha's palm.
Thank you! Always enjoy your video. I bought a "teenager" alocasias bambino. Love it. Now your video is a great motivation for me to try. Just wondering how to tell when I can propagate the bambino... by size of leaves or really need to dig out and check the roots? Thanks!
You would have to dig them out. But the longer you wait the more corm it will have. Also each old leaf that die will produce a node with growing eye 🥰
@@onlyplants Good tips! Thank you!
That mother plant....forbidden choi sum hahaha 😂
My local nursery has a few varieties of alocasia....they look very lonely and a bit neglected so I want to rescue them so bad! But this is my first year as a plant parent, so I'll wait until next growing season when I'm more experienced. I live in Texas, so it's dry here, but this summer has been quite humid, so we'll see how it is next year...
Oh yes alocasias are not for beginners. Start with some easier ones first perhaps. The dragon scale is not so bad.
Omg your bag is gros so fast. Mine had one leaf and after a few months just died... It's Phong by the way :)
I love my alocasia (frydek).. but not so much the ongoing battle with spider mites. It definitely takes some time for the corms to sprout. It gave me so many babies that i’m running out of indoor space! 🙈
Haha yes they are spidermites magnets but can be very fast growing when conditions are right
6:33 that sound you make... ❤️
😅
Hi Sean...luv ur channel and contents! When I'm in Jkt can I visit u and get some cuttings? Lol 😆 🤣 😂 Keep sharing your plants and expertise!!!
