This large tropical species is traditionally used as a vegetable in Asian continents due to its edible corm, but is more often used in Europe as a stunning foliage plant. This variety has huge, jet black, heart shaped leaves that will undoubtably improve a shaded area on the patio, or around a water feature.  Part of the Royal Hawaiian Series of colocasia

A great plant for containers or borders in summer, ideally with good protection from cold into Autumn.
