Rescued these from a clearance section yesterday not knowing anything about them. Should the stems be so tall as you can see one is bending over quite badly. Should I repot or let them get used to the new place first? Do pebble trays work or do I need a humidifier? Any advice appreciated!

My regal shield’s oldest leaf has grown so large and heavy that the petioles base is unable to support it. I heard a wet celery crunching sound while playing helldivers just now and I look over to see this tragedy. Does anybody have any recommendations? Either for if I should just trim it or not, or if I should, how can I preserve the leaf as it’s my favorite plant. I’ve already used garden Velcro to hold the leaf up the first time it fell but this time there’s nowhere to support it from. Also enjoy my stepchildren making a guest appearance.

I got the mother plant at Walmart a couple months ago, but I can not decide what species of alocasia this is! This is a pup, any opinions are appreciated 😅

What can this mean? I love my Elly. I notice these marks on her this morning. I keep Elly on my porch which has indirect sun in the late afternoon. Could this be the problem?

I got my alocasia 3 weeks ago and after one week I start noticing thin areas on two of the leaves, I don’t know what can be … maybe sunburn? However the other two leaves are perfectly. My questions are: Should I cut the baby one ? The most affected Should I repot her with new soil ? Same size pot. Haven’t repotted her yet I’m just waiting to do it after the month

Can anyone explain why my regal shield leaves are looking like this? 😔 am I overwatering it? Newest leaf is the darkest & healthiest looking leaf

I’m wondering if these leaves are yellowing due to age or if I have a different issue on my hands. Insight welcome!

My regal shield albo just put out its 3rd white leaf. The first 2 white ones do have tiny specks of green but not much. Do I need to chop her back? 🥲
