I have seen the above 2 plants and they are the same plant. It certainly appears to be a yellow-leafed Xanthosoma. X. maffafa can be purchased from Southern Shade X. 'Lime Zinger' can be purchased from Gainesville Tree Farm (see http://www.4view.com/adams_eden/ ) +More >From a landscape point of view, this yellow-leafed Xanthosoma is absolutely stunning when planted next to Colocasia 'Black Magic' which is available from Plant Delights Nurs.
