Colocasia Care Sheet
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or a position with gentle morning sun. Outdoors during summer it enjoys partial shade or full sun with consistently moist soil.
Water: Keep the compost consistently moist during the growing season. Never allow it to dry out completely. Reduce watering in autumn and winter if the plant becomes dormant.
Soil/Nutrition: Grow in a rich, moisture-retentive but well-drained compost. Feed every two weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser to encourage vigorous foliage growth.
Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Increase humidity by grouping plants together or using a humidifier if grown indoors.
Pruning and propagation: Remove yellow or damaged leaves at the base as they appear. Mature plants can be divided during spring by separating the tubers or offsets.
Experience level: Beginner.
