Just picked this baby up at Walmart!! I’ve been wanting one for a while now. It’s my first Alocasia, but i have a calathea and feel (based on my research) like the care is pretty similar. Any advice on how to care for this beauty is appreciated!

They require a lot of humidity!

I have a humidifier on the way from Amazon right now! Im sacrificing my Calathea and using its humidifier in the meantime lol. It’s at 70% currently :)
