It didn't have any ID when I bought it, and my curiosity has been building. I wonder how big it will get . .

These have been coming out more and more in nurseries over the past few years. They were very common about 15-20 years ago, then, like a lot of plants, fell off the radar. The 2nd coming of the Aroid and Houseplant craze has prompted them to make a comeback. A few of mine

This one is fairly easy to tell apart from the variegated ALocasia gageana by the patterning of the variegation. Macro albo V almost never throws 'mint' leaves...gageana does a lot
