The one with dark, shiny leaves is Alocasia Cuprea, and the one with pretty stems is Alocasia Zebrina. I do hope they like their new home - had a bit of mixed luck with Alocasias in the past…

    Those are astounding! Watering with rain or the like? Can’t imagine tap water is getting such results.

      Straight from a store, and they were watering them with tap water, that’s what I do too. Fortunately I live in Tokyo, so tap water is pretty high quality here :)

        Be sure to water them from the bottom only and of course good light and they will continue to bring happy returns :)

        I also use mostly tap water and some aquarium water and the plants drink it up just fine for me as well :)
