Colocasia Pharoah's Mask

Large green leaves, covered with chunky black 3D

Bulb size 20/22cm.

One of the most intriguing foliage plants available.

Its vibrant and strangely marked, reptilian green leaves are enhanced by a dark central spine from which corrugated ribs fan out and curl backwards forming a mask shape.

Colocasias are fairly easy to grow plants and very adaptable to all types of soil.

The compost needs to be well drained if grown in colder climates. Also make good pot plants. They need plenty of water during the growing period. Tolerates shade and sun.
