Summary

Español: Alocasia macrorrhiza

From the wiki en. Ape Flower (Alocasia macrorrhiza). It is always difficult to determine these things from a photograph, but my impression of this one is that the plant is misidentified, and appears more likely to be Xanthosoma roseum. Schott (also called `ape), based on the glaucous appearance of the stems. These species are commonly confused in Hawai'i. USGS photo by Forest and Kim Starr.

This is our image, and it is indeed Xanthosoma, not Alocasia. Follow link to original image for updated taxonomy.
