The one with dark, shiny leaves is Alocasia Cuprea, and the one with pretty stems is Alicasia Zebrina. I do hope they like their new home - had a bit of mixed luck with Alocasias in the past…
I’m jelly! Those look beautiful!
Not sure of anyone still here, but I just got two really beautifu Alocasias and I want to brag a bit ;)

WOW! the Alocasia cuprea looks soo cool/elegant? not sure but I really like the deep and prominent striations with that purplish hue🤗📸

They were both surprisingly cheap too - just saw them in a home center I went to buy some other stuff and couldn’t resist :)
