Well the site that Rox pointed out had it so I went ahead and ordered it. I remember some very cool photos of Cytrosperma were in it. I look forward to reading it as I have flipped through the pages before but never really got to sit down with it.

OK Alistair I have my next question for today LOL. This is a very large growing alocasia with a dark bluish green leaf almost reticulated it seems. The stems are slightly zebra stripped and it can grow well over 10feet tall. I was told it was also a form of Macrorrhiza. This was growing at Fairchild gardens and Craig Allen gave me a few large pieces.
