[ Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Madeira') | Posted on August 13, 2013 ]

Leaf color can range from uniform jet black to dusty blue green with purple around the veins, even combinations of yellow and black!
A very underrated release from brians botanicals
May be more cold hardy than originally thought, maybe more than pink china!

[ Elephant's Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Lemon Lime Gecko') | Posted on August 12, 2013 ]

A spectacular hybrid!
Standing up to full sun!
Rare for a variegated EE to say the least!
They grow and reproduce extremely fast, reaching a large size in only a few months

These plants seem have proven too variable in tissue culture, and will likely be discontinued soon.
Because of this, there are several forms of this plant. Leaves will range from dark green with yellow-green blotches and splashes to a light yellow-green flecked with darker spots, and everything in between!

[ Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Black Runner') | Posted on August 6, 2013 ]

This plant, Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Black Runner'), and are the same plant!
They have ruffled leaves, and spread vigorously by way of runners (stolons).

It's my understanding that this is a hybrid of C. Black Magic X C. Green Ruffle
