Alocasia for sure, sorry I do not have outdoor pics with more erect growth but in just like an Alocasia Mac but with purple stems. It got to about 8 ft tall before flowering. I gave the Mother plant to Andrew in Holland and I hope he still has it . I gave Bamboo Mark in the UK one but he killed it. I originally got my plant from Simon of Amulree Exotics (Turn it Tropical) in the UK . It had come as a mislabelled plant to Simon and I was very new to Exotic plants so had no idea of a name for it, nor did Simon or Paul Spracklin who was with me that day could put a name to it. I grow Xanthoma's so I know for sure it's not one, I wish I could grow a Xanthoma that big in France , perhaps here in the US I can :-)
Thanks
Later
