I bought these last spring, Not from anybody here, as named varieties, and when they came to me none of them were labeled their names. I thought they all died but hung on to the tags I made for them so I could place the tags on them later when I had them id'd

Here ar e the names of the ones I bought

Alocasia Esculenta Yellow splash
Alocasia odora arureo variegata. ( maybe mispelled, can't read my writing)
Colocasia esculenta Elepaio
Alocasia odora okinawa silver

maybe the center is elepaio The one on the far right was variegated last fall. and just not showing it right now, I may have to wait a bit before id'ing it . the one on the left looks like splash but not sure, they all resemble some variegation, even the one on the right has some sploches but hard to see in the photo.

One is missing , but I didnt' store it in the same place as these, and now it's placed with some other noid pups that I dug up last fall. after digging the mother plants, pups came up later and I then dug those and potted them with n oid tags for later iding to their parents. ALOT of my aroids and tropical gingers haven't even shown their selves yet because of this weird weather we're having. I hope it shows up soon, and hope it is one of the 3 and not splash. and I hope one of these 3 isn't splash LOL I have that in a larger pot and it's got several in it. so if one has to die, I'd rather it be splash

I know I may have to wait a while longer for them to grow up a bit, to get proper id's which is ok too.

I don't even remember where I got them any more, but was sorely disapointed that they wouldn't think to put labels on them. none the less. No more talk of them.

Just wantto id them
