Giant Elephant Ears

Alocasia calidora

Description:

giant leaves over 1m (3.3'), not 100% on the species.

Habitat:

subtropical valley

Notes:

I spotted this in Jinshagou Nature Reserve. It seemed a bit out of place as I only saw one but I don't think it was planted. It was a pretty wild area but could be a garden escapee.

For sure, one leaf would be enough!

A good plant to feed the green hawk moth caterpillar!
