What's eating my alocasia maharani (grey dragon)?

Alocasia Maharani (Grey Dragon) is a compact indoor aroid most commonly attacked by spider mites, which adore its thick textured leaves in dry air. Mealybugs colonise its corm-level sheaths, and scale can appear on mature petioles. Its slow growth means pest damage accumulates quickly, so inspect at every watering.

Pale stippling across the grey-green textured leaf surface and webbing on undersides; leaves dull and stressed Raise humidity to 60%+, shower the plant to dislodge mites, apply neem oil or insecticidal soap spray weekly for 3 weeks

White cottony clusters at the base of petioles near the corm and in leaf sheaths; sticky residue and wilting Swab with 70% isopropyl alcohol at soil level and leaf bases; apply neem oil drench; repeat weekly

Hard tan or brown bumps on petioles and stems; gradual leaf yellowing and sap loss Scrape off with a soft toothbrush dipped in rubbing alcohol; treat with horticultural oil monthly until clear
