Cultivated, not rushed.

Plants, chaos,
and loving every second.

Cultivated, not rushed.

Hi, I’m Kate. I grow and collect rare alocasias and corms, document the whole messy process on TikTok, and somehow turned a full-blown plant obsession into a shop. No regrets. Come hang.

Your wallet may never recover — you’ve been warned.

Real collector, not a warehouse
Rare corms & alocasias from my personal collection
Honest care advice, nerve-wracking stuff included
New drops on TikTok & Instagram first
The shop

Things I’d buy myself.
(And honestly, already did.)

Everything here lives in my grow space first. If it made the cut, it’s because it actually works — and I’ll tell you exactly what to do with it.

🧬
My specialty
Alocasia corms
Fresh corms from my personal collection — the start of something seriously beautiful.
🌿
The obsession
Rare alocasia
Venom, Acuminata Albo & whatever else I’ve fallen for lately. These are the ones your wallet warned you about.
🧪
Hard to find
Rare aroids
The ones that made me do a double-take. Special finds from my collection that need a new home.
🪴
The finishing touch
Pots & planters
Because your plants worked hard to get here. They deserve a good pot.
What I post about

The whole journey.
Domes, drama, and all.

I document everything — the good acclimation waves, the nerve-wracking repots, the very exciting plant mail days. This is the hobby living out loud.

Ongoing series
Corm Relay
Day by day, corm to plant. I post every step because honestly I’m too excited not to. Real timelines, zero editing out the stressful parts.
Cabinet goals
Unicoly Cabinet
My high-humidity setup, fully dialed in. Took a while to get here but she’s running beautifully and I will talk about it forever.
Coming soon
Luxe Root Blend
My custom aroid mix — airflow, drainage, consistency. It’s the blend I use on everything. More on this soon.
I tested it so you don’t have to
Vapor method & more
Vapor method, RapidStart, dome timing — I try it all and report back. No gatekeeping here.
Come hang

The grow space is always open.

TikTok is where the real-time chaos lives. Instagram is where I recap the milestones. Both are worth a follow if you’re into this stuff — and clearly you are.

About me

I fell into rare plants and never came back. What started as “just one alocasia” turned into a full deflasking hobby, a humidity cabinet I am deeply proud of, a corm relay series, and now a shop selling corms and rare alocasias from my personal collection. I try not to take things too seriously — except the plants, those I take very seriously — and I believe in living each day to the fullest, especially when there’s plant mail involved. Everything I sell, I grow. Everything I share, I actually do. Come be obsessed with me.
