Alocasia baginda 'Pink Dragon' variegated (APD-2121)

Fully rooted corm-grown baby dragon. Adorable - if not a bit vexing. Despite the heavy variegation and the mother (last picture) being sold to me as aurea, I cannot get the variegation to lift to yellow.

I've had it (its mother and its siblings!) for months in bright light with good feed, and it still looks like green on green to me. But maybe I'm wrong. 

In either case, pink dragons are a breeze to grow and make great beginner alocasia.
