Colocasia esculenta (Black stem)

A Colocasia selected for an exotic foliage display. Give the plant room to develop and shelter its leaves from drying winds.

Supplied in a 5L nursery pot. You are purchasing one live plant. Pot dimensions describe the nursery container, not the final height or spread.

Leaf colour, form and plant height vary naturally with age, season and growing conditions. If a specific specimen or size is important, contact MM Plants before placing your order.

Growing and care

• Light: Bright filtered light
• Watering: Water generously during active growth; keep the pot freely draining
• Temperature: Keep frost-free; dormant tubers need different watering from plants in leaf
• Aftercare: Unpack promptly, check the compost and allow the plant to settle before repotting. Remove only dead or damaged growth.
• Safety: Ornamental plant; harmful if eaten. Keep away from children and pets.
