Help with I.D.

9 years ago

I think this is a colocasia but could be wrong. Whatever it is, I would be happy if someone could give a cultivar I.D. Thank you.

Might be Alocasia Macrorrhiza variegata

Thanks. But I think alocasia macrorrhiza variegata has a different pattern of variegation with more distinct marbling, and it appears to be more of a stark white and green. Mine is gold and green and looks more like a mosaic pattern of variegation. The gold may brighten to cream in a lot of light, but it never turns white. I am obviously no expert here.

I received this in trade several years ago (at least 10) from a person in FL who specialized in variegated plants. I believe it was not widely available at the time. He said the cultivar name was tentative at that point, which doesn't matter now since I've forgotten it anyway.

Yellow variegated alocasia odora? Found for sale on Ebay.

Variegated alocasia Gagnea? (DG).

Sorry, I tried to post links but they were rejected.
