Colocasia gigantea Thailand Giant Strain (Super-Sized Elephant Ear)

http://www.plantdelights.com/Catalog/Images/Colocasia_61254.jpg

Sun to Part SunZone: 8-10 108" tall Origin: Thailand
Make mine super-sized! This huge strain of the giant elephant ear was grown from wild collected seed (PES 1003B) from Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand, in 2003 by former PDN Research Manager Petra Schmidt. In the wild, the plants reached a massive 9' tall, which is much larger than the clone of C. gigantea we currently grow. For us, each individual leaf grows in excess of 5' long x 4' wide. Each seedling will differ slightly, but massive plants will be the result. In foliage, the leaves are an attractive glaucous-grey which is typical of this species. From an early age, the plants are adorned with clusters of dramatically large, pleasantly scented, white flowers. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
