[aroid-l] Rare new alocasias offered by Malesiana Tropicals

Dear Folks

Today we added the following rare Alocasia for sale. We are the first ever nursery to offer the two recently described Sabah species, A. pangeran & A. wongii


Alocasia longiloba 'watsoniana' (the real thing, not one of the hybrids; stunning)

Alocasia pangeran (the species epithet is a princely title in Malay; lovely species known only from limestone in Sabah)

Alocasia princeps 'Purple Cloak' (slender species with plum purple, sandpapery petioles and narrow deep green, purple-backed leaves. Violet spathes).

Alocasia princeps 'Dwarf Purple Cloak' (much as above but an overall smaller-growing plant)

Alocasia scabriuscula (thickly textured steel grey leaves on rough red-spattered petioles. Clusters of white spathes)

Alocasia wongii (recently described species from Sabah; lovely snakeskin-marked petioles and bluish leaves).
