eclayne said:Would you be willing to protect an Alocasia ("upright leaves") every winter? If so Alocasia odora or something with it in it's parentage might work. It might not though. Quite a few Colocasia are fairly reliably hardy in cool/wet winter locations in z8a. Especially if mulched.


Willing? Don't expect it to be that much trouble; just a fair amount of mulch and plenty of drainage to begin with is what I'd expect.
