A Tropical Look, Great in Shade.
The Elephant Ear Illustris, 'Colocasia Illustris', looks great in a container or in your shade garden. The large beautiful leaves will add diversity and drama to any landscape, large container or patio.
The Illustris looks similar to the Esculenta but has gorgeous dark, almost black leaves with dark green veins. Adding depth and a gorgeous backdrop, or focal point to every plant it is mixed with.
