Alocasia

Polly losing variegation?


Hey, I hope you guys can help me with this:
I bought my Alocasia Polly variegated back in march and it hat a nice light pink variegation. We had a bit of a difficult time in the beginning, for every new leaf it lost an old one. Now she seems to be thriving and recently put out two big leaves and a third one is in the making. The problem: no variegation at all. I thought variegation in alocasias is stable? Am I wrong? I thought only philodendrons and monsteras could lose it over time. Do you have an idea how I can bring the variegation back? I have a plant light installed, so it should get enough light…
The first pic shows how she looked in march.
Second pic: a leaf she put out a few weeks later.
Pic three and four: current leaves

    I am guessing it has reverted into a normal polly. Did you get it as a corm or a tissue culture? If it is grown from corm, you can hope that the variegation with pop back one day
