    Ian , that one is Alocasia nebula , it was called A.guttata imperialis for many years . Can be a bit tricky to keep growing well .Needs well drained media and shade . keep dry over winter .

    Nice one Ian. I used to grow it before I was "into" aroids and failed. Now I can't find it anywhere. Maybe I will have to start looking in Kmart...
