I think it could be a mutant form of macrorrhizos.
Saw a large plant growing in full sun =2C and it gets to approx 1.5m .
This is with no trunk and only approx a few years old .
Seems to be difficult to keep thriving in pot culture.
I just planted out one =2C near a grove of Amorphos .

Subject: [Aroid-l] Alocasia 'Stingray' query

Hi Listers=2C

I seem to recall that late last year there was a reference to Alocasia 'Stingray' (see image here: http://www.centralfloridafarms.com/alocasia-stingray.htm [nb: not my image or website] )=2C but I can't find anything in the archive search. Someone may be able to answer my query anyway=2C and that is does anyone know what species this is considered to be a form of?

With thanks in anticipation=2C

RBG Melbourne=2C Australia
(which has had 2mm of rain since Christmas=2C 3 consecutive days over 45C in Feb=2C and 1 record buster at 47C)
