I will start the profile with Black Magic Taro, one my favorite pond plants.
It grows about 4' tall and it is an incredible color that is described as different colors depending on who is viewing the plant.
Some refer to the color as deep burgundy, while others see it as charcoal black. And still others say it a violet -black color.
It is a dusty looking color no matter what color one call it. I have had very good luck growing them in the pond if I keep the water level even with the crown of the plant or even slightly higher. I grow mine in my pond in a plant stand.
Black Magic is a totally awesome plant and it a plant that draws the most comments in my pond.
It is a plant that once one sees it, they too must have it for their pond.
It is hardy to zone 8 but does very well in the house in water filled saucer in front of sunny window in the lesser climates for the winter.
