Colcasia Esculenta Black Magic
Colcasia Esculenta Black Magic – These tropical corms need to be kept frost free and moist. Perfect space filler for a difficult shaded area. They can also be grown indoors.
The deep purple of these leaves is amazing; water droplets caught on this massive canopy look like shining jems.
