Description
Colocasia gives pleasure all summer long with its huge, velvet-like textured, dark green, heart-shaped leaves that are lined with darker veins, adding real drama to the shade garden near our pond. It’s also spectacular as a sturdy backdrop for perennials in the flower border, although we suspect in most full sun situations, it will perform better if a soaker hose provides a little constant moisture. Excellent for water gardens when planted in a pot submerged in the pond.
