Hmmm, I've never had alocasia survive our winters in the ground so I always keep them in the pot but colocasias on the other hand usually come back but are smaller than if I dug them up - later on as the heat builds they catch up and often surpass what I brought indoors. I dug up the Illustris mother plants in the fall of 2012 but didn't realize all the little runners would come back the following year. This was August last year. No sign of them yet but the cannas and dahlias are up...
