Alocasia cucullata 'Moon Landing' is a fascinating sport with chartreuse gold foliage, edged with an uneven blotched green border. Preferring part sun to light shade, this 20" tall x 20" wide elephant ear also makes a fabulous container specimen. This 2006 Asiatica Nursery (Barry Yinger) introduction is still quite rare in collections.
