Colocasia Sangria is another one of the new hybrids. Dark green leaves slight purple veins in the older leaves and a bright red to neon pink petiole. Grows to 5 feet tall. Has over wintered in Kentucky zone 6 for 3 years. I recommend only leaving out mature plants in well drained soil for winter. Mulch up in colder climates. Treat similar to Musa Basjoo.
