Colocasia
‘Pharaoh's Mask’
Colocasia 'Pharaoh's Mask' is very unusual selection from breeder Brian Williams that is spectacular in the garden. The large green leaf displays a black center mid-rib and veins as well as dark petioles. The unusual black mid-rib and veins are raised up from the leaf while at the same time the leaves push out and the edges pull back giving it a 3D effect. You have to see it to believe it!! Colocasia are great at creating a tropical feel in the garden or pool side as well as adding movement, texture and bold leaves to the garden. The flower is typically hidden by the foliage and is not very showy. Deer and rabbit resistant. Photo courtesy of Brian Williams at Brian's Botanicals.
