looks like an alocasia frydek “variegated” :)

I was also thinking Frydek! Appaloosa Gold has very similar features though.

love these guys but they hate me 🤣

Personally I’m not an alocasia lover, and she’s my first! Maybe she’ll change my mind haha

i’ve unfortunately lost my mother plant but i was able to manage a few corms off of mine, first time ever and first ever alocasia i knew really anything about. was beautiful till i repotted it and stressed it too much hahaha! i’m getting some success in my corms though and am trying to find out myself what kind of medium i should put my lil sprout in. you got this though!!! don’t let my mistakes fool you lol

It’s looking like an Alocasia macrorrhiza variegata to me. I have a variegated Frydek and the leaves look wider on this one. I’m including a pic of a macrorrhiza for reference
