I have a spotted angel wing Maculata I purchased just about a week ago and it really hates me. I’m usually great with tropicals- monstera, Hoya, succulents, philos and pothos but I am in desperate need of advice. Lots of pics posted showing what is happening to leaves, and where I am currently keeping it light wise. It definitely doesn’t need water- if anything it’s been overwatered- but it looked perfect the day I brought it home. Should I cut off the terrible leaves and try to propagate? Would that help overall health. I’m so sad.

Maybe it’s just going through shock as it acclimates to your home? The soil looks dry from the pictures though, I water mine when the top inch gets dry – they like being fairly moist but not soggy. I use an airy aroid substrate mix for my begonias and they seem to be thriving in that setup.
Also, the new growth looks promising so I wouldn’t stress too much about it unless they start browning too then I would look into possibly underwatering/overwatering issues.
