If it was hybridized or pollinated it would have produced little berries that get about as big as a pea or smaller the bloom hangs on for a few months before they rippen. The seeds are about the size of half a grain of sand. I must ask what for of Colocasia is this. Meaning were did you get it is this the large form seen in Walmarts and other stores? If so it will produce large bulbs if not you will have runners? I am asking because I have not had any luck with the large form producing blooms. Maybe once in 7 years. THANKS In the pic you can see the fertilized berries and the smaller ones did not take. The pics I have of many of these colocasia seeds and berries are the only ones I have seen pictures ever. |
