I have little experience with alocasias as they are generally less hardy here, but I have quite a few with somewhat ambiguous ID's and I can't tell them apart...I'll post individual pics of each

Clockwise from top left:
1-Labeled 'Cal'--from a friend--we couldn't figure out if it was 'Calidora' or 'California' (gageana)at the time
2-UnID alocasia from trade
3-Brian IDed this one as gageana last year, was a gift from a nursery owner in western NC that didn't know the name. It has pupped like crazy
3-a pup from the above plant, it just had the largest leaf I could find on these
4-new plant from trade labeled 'Odora'

I know that they are all smaller so that may make it hard
