Alocasia brancifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae, native to the Moluccas and New Guinea.[1] With its heavily dissected leaves it is sometimes kept as a houseplant.[2] There appears to be a cultivar, 'Pink Passion', in which the markings on the petioles are pink instead of the usual brown.[3]
Similar to the Alocasia zebrina, the leaf stalks of the Alocasia brancifolia are striped.
Taxonomy and etymology
Alocasia brancifolia is named after the branching structure of its dissected leaves which is unique when compared to the leaves of the other species within the Alocasia genus.
