This is my first Alocasia and I’ve had it for probably about 5 months now. I haven’t had any new growth except for this that started about a week ago. Is this a flower ?? Or new leaf forming ? Regardless I’m excited to see an addition to itself :)

It’s an inflorescence! Basically a flower. You can cross pollinate with other Alocasia if you had any. I’m not super educated on this but you could research if you were interested! I ended up cutting mine off of my silver dragon, I got 3 inflorescences in a row and it was taking so much energy and killing off my leaves 🙁
