Hybrid

Could proposed natural hybrid merely be an aneuploid
or polyploid seedling of Alocasia cucullata with thicker, broader leaves and
more pronounced interveinal puckering? Whatever it is it is an improvement
over plain old A. cucullata. See if it gets bigger than the standard cucullata
when it matures.

The 'thing' is off course interesant,and seem
to have both
part of colocasia gigantea and alocasia
cuculata....
But i don't think that the last pic(but pic
number 1) is colocasia gigantea.Colocasia have more round
leaves,in
all plants that i know.This plant seem more a
xanthosoma
for me.And if i know that some cross were made
between colocasia and alocasia,i don't think that it could be possible
between xanthosoma and alocasia.Mr Hay?Mr Boyce?What are thinking the
experts?
