Elephant’s Ear Alocasia
While Elephant’s Ear is a really interesting plant, it needs a lot of water to stay healthy. If you tend to forget to water your plants or if you travel a lot, these plants won’t grow well for you. This also isn’t a plant that you can touch often as it can bruise very easily. If you have one of these plants, drooping leaves are a tell-tale sign it needs more water.
