Identification: Hoping to identify a plant I adopted.

Hello,

Though no plant expert, I rescued this orphan (Please see the attached photo) from a hallway and after saving it from drowning and burning it's leaves in the sun, and over feeding it, it has rewarded me by sending out a "flower"? Can anyone tell me what this plant is so I can care for it more responsibly? Thank you!

 

Looks like Alocasia x amazonica, African Mask.

 

Thanks for the ID. What a cool plant!

 

I recommend to you the outstanding site---The Exotic Rainforest---created by the late, great Steve Lucas. Just gorgeous, and scholarly too.

Here is the page for Alocasia Amazonica:

Congrats on the inflorescence! I believe that your plant is saying 'Thank You' in Aroidese.

 

Thanks for the referral, I will definitely check out the site! I am excited to know more.
