Colocasia black magic (orginal)

Colocasia esculenta "Black Magic," also known as Taro, is a tuberous, frost-tender perennial with long-stalked, heart-shaped, smokey purplish-black leaves that can grow up to 2 feet (60 cm) long. It is mostly planted for its magnificent foliage. The leaves of Colocasia droop and point downward, in contrast to the foliage of Alocasia, which point upward. These blossoms, which are made up of a yellowish-green spathe and spadix, are similar to calla lily flowers. They are rarely created and are not very ostentatious. A hassle-free tropical, "Black Magic" produces an unforgettable focal point and a visually striking backdrop for most other plants. Best Conditions: Full sun to partial shade; moist to wet soil Special care instructions for all varieties of Colocasia: #Repot the plant as soon as it arrives; #Be aware that it may sustain damage during shipping; don't worry, new leaves will appear in a week; #Leave it in indirect sunlight for three to seven days; #Continually monitor the moisture content of the soil and provide it with water. Avoid overwatering it.
