Alocasia × amazonica 'Polly'
  • Alocasiaa 'Polly', sometimes commonly sold under the name of African mask plant or elephant’s ear, is  a smaller mutant of Alocasia ‘Amazonica’ (A. sanderiana x A. longiloba ‘Watsoniana’), which originated with Denis and Bill Rotolante at Silver Krome Gardens in Homestead, Florida. It typically grows to 60 cm tall and as wide. Large dark green leaves not only feature dramatic silvery-green to white veins but also produce attractive shades of yellow and green when backlit by sun. Male and female flowers bloom on a white spadix which is partially encircled by a green spathe. Flowers rarely appear on container plants.

     

    Genus name comes form the Greek words a meaning without and Colocasia the name of a closely allied genus, form which it was separated.
