I think its Colocasia escuelenta "Elena"

Whatever it is, it's gorgeous, Evelyn! Yummy color!

Marcia

I agree with "Elena" in bright light the veining should spread as the leaf matures

Katie

thanks so much Bihai, and Katie for the fast ID, I knew I can count on my fellow gardenwebbers to know that one :)
and yes Marcia, the color is yummy. I am sure its pups will need a good home ;)

Evelyn

Evelyn, is that one you got from me, that I called Lime Zinger. Do I have the name of mine wrong? :o) Or did you get it elsewhere?

no Kathy, this one I received from a girl living in North Florida.... I never had a lime green ele ear before this one.

Ok. I just looked at mine and it doesn't have the red dot, so I guess it is the real Lime Zinger. :o)

So the red from that dot is going to spread into the veining? That would be so pretty...kind of like a caladium?
I love lime green and chartreuse foliage. We'll talk some day when yours has pups, Evelyn.

Marcia

Evelyn,you have a beautiful Elephant ear,there.
It seems florescent.
Felix

sure Marcia, if it is like any 'normal' ele ear, it will pup like mad LOL....
Thanks Felix, I got it purley by accident, I didn't want it at first, but I guess this ele ear had my yard in mind ;)

Evelyn- I have this same EE...I think that I must have gotten it from you. It is in a pot. It seems like a death sentence if I plant it in the yard. It certainly isn't reaching it's full potenial in the shade house BUT it is still alive for which I'm grateful.

I have this one and its great for my soggy situation. The "Lime Zinger" you're talking is in a different genus, xanthosoma. I do prefer the colocasia though!

no Laura, I just received this pup in a trade. you must have gotten yours from someone else. Why would you not plant it in the ground?

Thanks jaxtropix for the info, my yard is a soggy mess most of the time, it should feel right at home then LOL
