Kristen, you will have a jungle with that lot!
Re: "HOW TO GROW colocasias/Xanthosoma bought from a marketV
When you see me offering Colocasia kristonii hopefully you will have forgotten this post and snap them up at a fiver a go!
I might have got a bit carried away, but as I was buying online I increased the qty a bit in case some of them might be damaged; £8.95 for 30, and got some nice curry ingredients too
I was thinking that they could be along the front of my proposed raised bed behind the pond, which is 30' long. Might look a bit "samey" though ...

Average price for mine 12½ cents each (8 for a dollar).
Currency converter shows 1.00 CAD = 0.635409 GBP .... so thats 0.079462 each using GBP.
Here they are using my method a week later. These are pushing already in gallon pots!
Cheers, Barrie.
