Help, my Elephant plant keeps drying up after a few weeks of budding a new leaf. Is this normal?

i have the same problem with my alocasia polly’s… it almost seems like it’s putting all of its energy into the new leaf
좋아요 1개This variety likes evenly moist soil. It does put a lot of energy into growing new large leaves and can use up more water. They thrive in full sun and has dark green leaves when grown in bright direct light. The yellowing leaves could be a watering issue and/or insufficient lighting.
