Anyone know what I should do with these yellow spots? They are on my three oldest leaves. Sometimes the leaves get more yellow spots on them but I’m not sure if I should cut them off (the yellow spots) or just leave it. None of my new leaves have any yellow spots on them.

Back off your watering a bit. I usually just trim those small areas off the leaf.

I’ll try that. It’s just weird how only the older leaves have it. I’ve had four new leaves and none of them have developed the yellow spots at all.

Alocasia’s can be like that. I have one like that which had 6 leaves in the fall and we’re down to 3. I just keep saying “spring is coming!”
