It looks to be Alocasia Macrorrhiza. Now their are a few other species that look very similar but this is the most common. The only other way to tell it from calidora odora or others would be a flower. Macrorrhiza will have a green flower with a green spath and a white to off yellow spadix. Odora can have a pink to yellow flower. It is still a bit hard to compare with photos of other macrorrhizas that is manlly because when juvinal the leaves can look more roundish and sometimes the back lobes can be completely fused but as it matures it will show more Mac like traits. Fast grower green flowers grows a trunk and orange berries. Hopefully the other thread I posted can help many of you ID your plants. But getting them in the right genus and family is one thing some groups have hundreds and hundreds of species.
