Our new beauty! Any tips from experts?

Found this at our local nursery for a great price. Too good to pass up! Don’t have experience with an alocasia this big though. Any expert tops to keep her healthy and thriving?

I’m a newbie at alocasias as well, but have managed to keep one of these guys alive and finally thriving for several months. The more important thing I had to find was the right spot for it in my house. Before that, it dropped half its leaves! When it finally got the right amount of light—bright but not full sun—it’s doing really well. I am also very careful about not overwatering it. 🪴Best wishes!

Thanks for the advice! I’ll keep an eye on that! Wondering if I should get a humidifier for it as well 🤔

YES! Absolutely. Dont sleep on it. They hate dry conditions. Keep it nice and humid ☺️
