Definitely. These come from areas that are 'technically' considered tropical rainforest. BUT. They grow on the forest floor under dense canopy, where only about 2% of the rain that falls in the rainforest actually reaches the ground. So they have developed a unique trait in the alocasia genus of having very thick leaves that collect more water that falls as rain. Their leaves are actually referred to as being 'succulent'. They can tolerate, and prefer, a lot less water than an alocasia species like, for instance, gageana or macrorhizza, that can grow as pond marginals in hot climates. Too much water will rot these jewels quite quickly and sometines you will not even know it has happened until the entire crown of leaves just falls over disconnected from the meristem
