That’s a Xanthosoma, also known as Angel’s Wing. They’re beautiful but not the easiest to care for. Medium or low light plants and I use clean (distilled) water on mine. Enjoy her!

Thanks so much! I hope I can keep her alive!!!

Mine loves having a little humidifier too. I keep him next to my monstera :)

This is my all time favorite plant! Caladium Lindenii Magnificum and for good reason!! Mine currently has 7 leaves and is pushing out another!! 😍
