Hi all, I just bought this beautiful BOP plant. I noticed over be last few days a few marks on one of the leaves. Can anyone advise? It’s getting plenty of light. Is it too much light??

Pretty sure this is a philodendron, not a BOP. The mark is either physical damage or possibly a pest

I agree. It looks more like a philodendron. Def not a bird of paradise

Wow! Any idea what type as I can’t find this exact type on Planta!!

Green Congo maybe? I find that a lot of philodendrons have those spots when I buy them, but usually the new growth is just fine if it likes the conditions I give it
