I’m Gera. I grow rare and variegated Alocasias at home in New Jersey, one leaf at a time. A Novel Leaf grew from a love of the thing that makes these plants so special: no two leaves are exactly alike. Each one tells a story of its own while becoming part of something bigger.
The story behind A Novel LeafFrom soft pinks and painterly albos to glowing aureas and the occasional unicorn, the shelf is always changing as new leaves unfurl. Come meet them, plant by plant.
Explore the collectionThe things I’ve learned from growing my own collection—light, humidity, watering, substrate, acclimation, corm care, and everything in between. Not rules. Just what works on my shelf.
Read the care notesThe substrates, lights, nutrients, meters, pots, and supplies I genuinely use to grow my own plants. If it’s here, there’s a reason it earned a place in my setup.
