This one is in a 10" pot, the leaves are a little
larger than hand sized and are dark green velvet
in texture. I would like to know the accurate name.

Might be Alocasia 'Frydek' (Green Velvet Alocasia).

I garden for the pollinators.

ATP is absolutely wonderful. I posted three ID requests about 30
minutes ago and already have the answers!!!
Thanks to all who helped with the IDs. The site is so large that I
many times just don't know where to look.
