What is going on with her. I know winter is hard on our plants. I have my humidifiers going now. Should I cut these pieces off! Thanks!

I would… because I wouldn’t want the plant to keep sending energy to the damaged leaves but thats my uneducated opinion… 🤷‍♀️

They’ll never recover. I’d recommend cutting them off as long ad there are other leaves on the plant. Even if there aren’t other leaves, the alocasia regal shield will grow back as long as the corm is healthy
