How unusual is it to come across a variegated
Alocasia 'Polly'? Just asking because I was in Lowe's the other day and wandering through the little section where they have those little 'Exotic Angel' tropicals like I always do (I know, I know - but I just can't help it), and came across some slightly larger potted AE plants. They had various kinds of plants (crotons,
Alocasia 'Polly', etc) grouped in a bronzey-colored metal pot of about 8" or so in diameter.
Anywhoo... as I was looking at them, I was moving one with
Alocasia 'Polly' to get a better look at one with a 'Zanzibar' croton and saw that one of the 4 'Polly's' in the pot was spashed with white variegation. I bought it in a heartbeat. It also looked like a pup coming off of the variegated one was kinda white-washed or grayish, but it's still small, and I won't really hold my breath on it staying that way. I'll post pics here soon, but just wanted to post this while I was thinking about it.
On a side note, I know I've read up on it before, but can't remember what I read - is
Alocasia 'Polly' the correct name for the plant commonly identified as that? Seems I've read otherwise, but my memory ain't what it used... err, well, never was.
Thanks!
