Re: alocasia macrorrhiza, cane for propagating?

Well, it does look like a Dieffenbachia stalk or a trunk. I know what you are
talking about when you say eyes on it. It should work I would think if you
planted the cuttings with the eyes up and add a little hormone to it. As for
the Alocasia macrorrhiza you can take the stalk and cut it in to slices or I
have even cut the slices in to squares and they have produced plants. I don't
know if this will work with all of the Alocasias. I have not tried it with
any other ones. Let me know if it works.
