Thanks MA ,Yes the P. mamei is unusual . I expect as soon as the wet arrives it will start its growth .
MA do you ever hear from Ed , he was the Aroid person , I expect he could help with names . I never see his name on forums anymore.

No I don't Gwen I guess he is working hard. I remember him saying he was going to get his own website and sell his plants Maybe he has done that, I am sure he is on other forums so probably does not have the time anymore..

Those are some real beauties, what a joy to see your photos. I have a bit of a crush on Aroids and I grow some of the same ones that you have posted here - the 'Green Velvet' Alocasia and the 'Mickey Mouse' Xanthosoma are a couple of my favorites.
