About Colocasia Black Stem (Elephant Ear)
Colocasia Black Stem is a standout in the Elephant Ear family, renowned for its captivating appearance. Its downward-facing, impressive heart-shaped leaves make a bold entrance in deep plum purple, transitioning elegantly into a lush, rich blue-green. However, what truly elevates this variety's popularity are the strikingly tall, dark purple-black stems that provide sturdy support for these oversized leaves.
Cultivated in Costa Rica, these Colocasia bulbs brim with self-contained energy, ensuring robust growth. The hassle free tropical plant makes an unforgettable focal point and brings a distinct look to any landscape, water garden or large container. For optimal indoor growth, choose a large container and position in indirect sunlight.
