Bring bold, dramatic foliage to your garden while growing a plant that’s as practical as it is stunning. Colocasia Esculenta (Taro) produces massive heart-shaped leaves that instantly create a lush, tropical feel — and it also produces edible leaves and underground bulbs.
Colocasia is one of the easiest tropical-style plants to grow:
• Thrives in warm weather
• Loves moisture and rich soil
• Grows rapidly once established
• Perfect for containers or garden beds
• Great for beginners and experienced gardeners alike
Plant after danger of frost, keep soil consistently moist, and watch it explode with growth.
• Add structure and height to garden beds
• Pair beautifully with cannas, bananas, and elephant ears
• Make a stunning container centerpiece
• Thrive near ponds or water features
Colocasia Esculenta transforms ordinary spaces into tropical showpieces.
Colocasia Esculenta is widely grown around the world as a food crop:
• Edible leaves (when properly cooked)
• Edible underground corms/bulbs (taro root)
• Staple crop in many tropical cultures
(Always cook taro properly before consumption.)
Treat the bulbs you grow like you would a potato. Taro chips have a similar taste and texture to potato chips!

Mashed Taro is incredibly easy to make as well as being healthy and hearty
