I’m pretty sure is an alocasia

### Tellie commented on 2024-02-07

It looks like an African mask Alocasia.  
Or frydek Alocasia

A beautiful alocasia! Treat that baby with love 😍

Okay yeah, I thought so. But I wasn’t sure. The tag says Philodendron Longobila but I can’t find anything on Planta or the internet

Also it’s quite large so I’m just unsure. The newest leaf is probably the size of my forearm
