Colocasia black magic esculenta

Colocasia esculenta 'Black Magic' is a stunning tender perennial cultivar that produces large arrow-shaped foliage that emerges green then matures to a deep purple-black colour - making it a popular specimen among collectors.

Also known as Taro 'Black Magic' and Black Elephant's Ear, it has occasionally been sold as Alocasia 'Black Magic'. It grows well in partial shade and moist, well-draining soil.
