anyone know what plant this is?
not sure how to take care of it clearly, it’s currently in a cabinet with ~80% humidity and grow lights.

Hi Selena, this looks like a Begonia serratipetala, a shrub-like species known for dark bronze, serrated leaves with pink spots. These plants thrive in bright, indirect light, with stronger light intensifying the pink spots on the foliage. They require well-draining soil to prevent issues like root rot or yellowing leaves. It needs something like a stake to give it support as it’s quite tall. Grow lights for this plant are very specific- if it gets too much- the leaves will get burned and it will not get as pink. If it gets too little light- it becomes leggy and will not have any pink. Yours looks like it’s not getting enough light. Here’s a photo of a healthy one.
