Alocasia macrorhiza 'Seven Colors'

The basic colors are yellow and green, with the leaf stalk bright yellow striped green, and bold blotches of yellow on the green background. There are also tones of red, purple, peach, and pink on the stems of large specimens. This is related to 'New Guinea Gold' but has more dramatic

I purchased it when it first was on the radar screen and paid alot for it. I
now know that it is a nice clone of new guinea gold. I have one that is
alot nicer than that I purchased for a fraction of the price. Alot of things
have good , better, and best versions. shop around. I will tell you that
many of the things offered on their website is worth every penny that you
pay. Albert
