Description
Colocasia 'Black Magic' is a clumping elephant ear features unusual huge, purplish-black heart-shaped to arrowhead-shaped leaves. Bright indirect light to full sun generally brings out the best leaf color for this cultivar. However, in hot summers, plants appear to do best in part shade, particularly with some light afternoon shade. Very popular as a house plant, or in water gardens and ponds as it is very happy to stand in water up to 15cm deep.
