Can anyone ID
Looks like an Alocasia.
alocasia wentii, variegated, one of my favorites
Thanks, It is such a good grower.

Tropicanna hit it on the head. I have a couple of them myself from Plant Delights. Pretty EEs!
Recieved a second one from a friend that was a lot more variegated than mine and had more colors, which I liked better.

I would love to see it...I know the regular wentii is hardy to zone 7b, I wish I had a couple more of the variegated ones to try out over winter....their backsides are so colorful
Will try to get pictures of them and post tomorrow.
Barbara
this is photo of both plants.
wow, very nice! what do you plan to plant them with? I've had mine in a pot and just keep moving it around because I like it everywhere
I always keep one in gh just in case.
totally hardy in 8B, has been inground for about 7 years, both variegated and regular forms
Gothqueen, My zone is right on the edge. we can hit 12-15 degrees in winter every once in a while. Normally in 20's. Our real problem is the wet along with the cold in the winter. I find bulbs rotted or half rotted-we have sandy soil over deadpan clay. That is why I always keep one in greenhouse unless they are hardy to zone 7.
