1 Illustris is right
3 Xanthosoma atrovirens albo marginata mickey mouse
2 is a Xanthosoma it could me the same as above but if not it is then Saggittifolia var which is very rare. It could be so it would stay a lighter green than atrovirens and the stems with only be green and white and no cupping on the leaf tips. I would have to see photos of it later. But if it is its a Jewel.

Last one is rubarb or pink neon stem. Producing a bright neon pink stem pink china will have more white stems and the center stems pink. As for Colocasia Bloody mary I named this around 5 years ago. It is streaked green with red. I dont know anyone selling it yet but is a interesting plant so is Colocasia candy cane. One with pink and white streaked stems.


Here is a picture of the very rare and hard to find Bloody Mary.
