Colocasia 'Distant Memory' (Potted)

Colocasia ‘Distant Memory’ – Lush Tropical Foliage with a Dark Twist

Colocasia ‘Distant Memory’ is a bold, tropical showstopper known for its broad, deeply colored foliage and vigorous growth. The large, heart-shaped leaves emerge a smoky green-black with a subtle sheen, and as they mature, deepen into rich dark tones that contrast beautifully against lighter plantings. Strong, upright stems support the foliage, giving the plant a dramatic, fountain-like form.

At maturity, ‘Distant Memory’ reaches up to 48 inches tall and spreads 36 to 48 inches wide, making it a perfect centerpiece in the landscape or a statement plant in large containers or water gardens.
