Alocasia brancifolia

Alocasia brancifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae, native to the Moluccas and New Guinea. With its heavily dissected leaves it is sometimes kept as a houseplant. There appears to be a cultivar, 'Pink Passion', in which the markings on the petioles are pink instead of the usual brown. Similar to Alocasia zebrina, the leaf stalks of Alocasia brancifolia are striped.
