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.

This new introduction is breath taking! This is the only chartreuse yellow Colocasia on the market. If that was enough to get you excited, look at the purple markings in the veins! These markings spread as the leaf matures in bright light.

Tea Cup is one of a kind, for sure. Just take a look at the leaf structure on this one! The leaves hold themselves very upright in an inverted cup like pose. Bizarre as can be, however very eye pleasing. When the sun shines down on 'Tea Cups' leaves it illuminates the leaf tissue around the dark purple veins, which gives it a very spectacular look. Water "beads" up just like on a lotus

Full sun to half day sun  does reasonably well in full shade

Does well soil-less by putting the rooted end in a streambed of shallow water.

Mature Height: 3-4'
