Hello all! I have two questions about this monster of a plant! 1) Is it possible to grow Colocasia gigantea indoors with substantial indirect light in a north facing window in NY? and 2) Has anyone tried growing this plant outdoors during the late spring and summer in one of the colder zones (zone 7a and below)? Thank you!! ![]() |

I grow the Thailand Giant outside from late May to mid September depending on the temp, than it goes in the basement with low light conditions, it does not thrive in the basement but gets it to the spring to go outside once again. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. |
