hello! i am a new plant owner and i fear i have bought a new plant that maybe a bit more than i can handle. i bought it from the clearance section a lowes which is probably why she looks so sad. if anyone has any advice please share! i repotted her today and also watered her. i believe she is a elephant ear philodendron but i could be wrong. thank you!
It looks like an Alocasia Wentii and it could be an over watering issue.

Alocasia prefer a fair amount of humidity. And hate to dry out for long. The browning tips = too low humidity (whether that was pre or post purchase
