please help! pictures are 2 days ago vs today. im new to plants and dont know completely what i did wrong with my elephant ears. its drooping and has dark spots. planta said it was over watered so i took out of pot but the soil was pretty dry and no roots were rotted. i repotted it back into the same pot and watered it since the soul was dry. i don’t know how to save it if anyone has any suggestions i would really appreciate it
You might need to give her a minute to recover from all of the disruption from the possible overwatering and repotting. Does your pot have drainage? The water needs to be able to drain freely out of the bottom. The plant sitting in water is detrimental to its roots. It can cause rot. Since you caught whatever is happening quickly you should be able to fix it.

ime alocasias that are floppy wants a drink of water, they’re super dramatic like that 😅 if they’re overwatered they can also droop, but the leaves would feel “mushy” and easily tear like wet paper towel. if it’s a new plant it might also be flopping from transportation stress. trying giving it water and some time to adjust, and hopefully it’ll perk back up soon!

This is actually a caladium and not an elephant ear/ alocasia!
