The dark blue form is usually Xanthosoma atroverins Robusta has a bluish looking stem usually streaked with darker blues and sometimes purple and white. Atroverins can get huge but usually has to be in a pretty tropical spot for the summer and keep the pups off it or it turns into more a bush look rather than one monster plant.

Here is a pic of robusta stems.
