Colocasia gigantea
Taro
This variety of Colocasia is an herbaceous perennial renowned for its large and lush foliage. It features very large and glossy, dark green leaves which are very showy. It typically grows to 2.5 m tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, sheltered site that does not get frosted. In cooler areas the plants may die back during winter but will regrow again when conditions warm, though severe frosts can kill the plant outright. This plant is commonly included in tropical gardens, planted around water features or outdoor living areas, included in a mixed planting, or mass planted for a stunning display.
