Anyone able to help ID this cute guy? Smooth, matte leaves. Giving me philodendron vibes but I’m not having luck in finding a match. Thanks!

It’s a caladium xanthosoma lindenii

Thank you!

My favourite! Caladium lindenii or caladium magnificum. Loves humidity, hates tap water! In my experience gets burnt quite easily.
