    What kind of soil is it in and are you misting by any chance?

      I think it’s just regular potting soil ( I got it from Home Depot) and I do mist it

      I would change the soil to something with perlite and orchid bark. Also stop misting, it causes fungal infections on alocasias specifically. If you want to increase humidity try using a pebble tray or buying a humidifier.

    These plants are sometimes sensitive to direct sunlight and thrive better in higher humidity! The leave could possibly be getting burnt from too much sun

      Thanks so much! Is there anything to do to save the leaves or should I just leave them?

      To my knowledge, it should be alright if it has some brown spots. Best of luck to you

      Thank you! Is there anyway to save the leaves or are they stuck looking the way they are?

      They’re stuck unfortunately. I usually try to just cut off the burnt part in the most natural looking way I can
