I believe the plant in question is what is being sold in the trade as either
Xanthosoma maffafa or Xanthosoma 'Lime Zinger'.

I have seen the above 2 plants and they are the same plant.  It certainly
appears to be a yellow-leafed Xanthosoma.

X. maffafa can be purchased from Southern Shade
X. 'Lime Zinger' can be purchased from Gainesville Tree Farm

stunning when planted next to Colocasia 'Black Magic' which is available
from Plant Delights Nurs. ( http://www.plantdel.com/ )
