# Alocasia wentii
Indoor / houseplant
Keep damp but not soggy - can be killed by overwatering (root rot).
Browning or holes in leaves indicates too dry.
Water less in winter if it becomes dormant and stops growing.
Drooping indicates general stress or changes in conditions, not specifically overwatering.
This plant may weep water drips from leaf tips (*guttation*, transpiration) when it has plentiful / too much water.
