I got one of these on sale at HD 2 years ago. First winter, I simply brought it in to a back bedroom that gets west window sun. It did fine. Last winter, I brought it in to my basement growing area and it did fine. In both cases I only watered minimally and both times it stayed green but was in a holding pattern. No major loss of leaves.

It has not been repotted and this is its third season. I keep it on a semi shaded area of my deck.

Couple of questions.

Should I unpot the tuber this winter and give it a rest?

Either way - repotting next year is likely in order?

Thanks. Other than the Giant EE (which I will dig up and store), this is my only plant of this type - alo or colo-casia
