Is she flowering or is that what a new leaf looks like?

The woman I adopted her from said she could never keep more than a few leaves at a time, but it looks like there’s at least 2-3 new leaves coming in, and none of the existing ones look ready to die yet. I’d be over the moon if she was flowering now too!!

It looks like a flower to me! Mine bloomed and looked like this. 🙂

Yay!!! I’ll snip it so it can focus on the leaves, but I love that it’s happy and thriving in my care!!

You don’t need to snip it. Just let it do its thing. Cutting the bloom could actually interrupt what the plant is doing, leaving the next leaf to take even longer to emerge. I have quite a few alocasia and just let them bloom, snip off the dead/dried up bloom and there’s usually a leaf immediately following it.

Oh wow I’m so glad I saw this, thank you so much!

No problem. Actually, on the first pic, it does look like you have 2 blooms on the left then possibly a new leaf on the right!

Ya looks like a flower and a leaf coming in to me! The flowers are kinda neat! I let mine flower too, but cut it off the min it started looking sad. Keep doing what you are doing! That’s amazing, its likes your care!
