on first glance this looks like zebrina because of the stripes on the stems but the leaveas are thicker and are not ruffled on edge (for lack of a better description) like zebrina.

might be a long shot but alocasia villenevii. the rings on the stem makes me think that. but also there are alocasias out there only in botanical gardens, collectors greenhouse, etc and ones that only pup one every three years...

The leaves also want me to say that.
Agri starts photo and description below. I don't think it is the villenevii. Leaves of mine are leathery but all green.
http://www.agristarts.com/aloc_villenevii.htm This is a highly desirable, rare species. The shiny, smooth, deep green leaves which are blackish around the lateral veins and midrib, and have the thickest texture of all the species. The lower surface is silver-white until maturity when it is pale green. The most notable feature is the ever intensifying red-maroon circular color zones (green in the center) on the petioles. These color rings are replaced by a concentration of red-maroon pigmentation is snow white with occasional red-maroon spots. Mature at about 2’ in height, old plants develop distinctively woody stems.
light can also change the color of a leaf. just like if you have less shade your leaves are going to get bigger more light there going to be smaller. the pic that is shown in agristats is not as big as yours but if you notice the leaves are similar in the way the end where the tail is turns down. one persons maroon can be another persons burgandy. and has any small leafs look just like the big leafs in color? has all of the information on agristarts been correct? If I based all my information on agristarts coloring I would have a bunch of unknown plants.... besides that were there rubustas really rubstas last year or blue giants? for some werid reason they don't have the information for the rubusta down? wonder why, roz has a rubusta that she got from someone that buys from them and there kinda blue.
