Helppp!! I got this plant from a nursery for free because all the original leaves were dead. I brought it home and nurtured it back to health. The only concern I have is what it is?? I have no clue all I know is that it’s pushing a baby out!

Looks like a baby Alocasia Jacklyn

Possibly an alocasia portei. It doesn't have the texture of a Jacklyn. I posted my varigated in the alocasia group early, if you want to see a comparison
