Last year I bought an elephant ear at the co-op, which was labeled as "Jack's Giant". However, this plant is more similar to some of the purplish/black varieties and hasn't produced massive leaves or achieved great height. Only one of the photos here that has "Jack's Giant" tagged shows a plant similar to mine, so I'm wondering if this plant was mislabeled.

Here is my Colocasia esculenta in my water feature, toward the back:

Which variety do y'all think I have? Any help is appreciated.
