Thank you for the very well-packaged shipment I received today. I appreciate your time-consuming efforts at weight reduction for shipping: these plants are bohemoths that should-if I do my part- overwinter and leap out of the ground next Spring! In the midst of all of the challenges you have faced, I remain grateful for your professionalism and consideration.

This is my second year ordering from this fine nursery. The plants are large and healthy, and the choices are spectacular! They were very well packed and shipping was very quick.

Colocasia esculenta 'Black Magic'
(Elephant's Ear)  'Black Magic' is an elephant's ear cultivar featuring unusual purplish-black leaves. It is primarily a foliage plant with huge, heart-shaped, conspicuously-veined, downward-pointing leaves (to 2' long) on long petioles and which typically grows 3-6' tall and as wide.

As the common name suggests, each leaf purportedly resembles an elephant's ear. Yellowish-white, Calla lily-like flowers are usually hidden by the foliage, but flowers are infrequently produced.

Plants in the genus Colocasia are also commonly called taro (Colocasia esculenta is commercially grown as a food crop in Hawaii. Poi is made from the plant tubers).
