Alocasia macrorhiza "Jungle Gold"

From: Clarence Hester <hesterc at leguin.acpub.duke.edu> on 1999.01.04 at 16:24:05(2872) To list members who collect alocasias- Before I forget to mention it, I discovered an abundant source of Alocasia macrorhiza "Jungle Gold" plants recently in S. Florida. I randomly stopped at a nursery called "Living Color" that was either in Ft. Lauderdale, Hollywood or Davie (depending on how they section those cities); anyway, it was out on Griffin Rd. not too far from the Florida Turnpike. +More Anyway, this nursery had a *very* abundant stock of three gallon pots of good-sized Alocasia macrorhiza "Jungle Gold". I mention it because, as recently as last spring, this plant was hard to find, especially for specimens this size. Thanks, Clarence Hester
