Has anyone seen it, supposed to have the blackest leaves. I know where I can get some.
New Colocasia Midnight
Looks similar ro Black Magic, but maybe smaller. Last pic on the bottom right.

Different hue, maybe a shade darker.
I think my Black Magics are that dark -- the Black Magic to the left is just weirdly light.
Midnight is smaller and has a more elongated leaf. Cala! If you can find some ... can you find some for me, too?!
I found them, they are a bit more than the ones on the co-op now, but not much more. Is that your web page that is in the link?
No, I wish. That's NCSU (North Carolina State Univ.). It's also good for coleuses.
When you said you had found some Midnight, I thought you had found adult plants at a high price, and I was bracing myself (I still would have hocked things if I had to). I had NO idea they might be available as inexpensive plugs.
Puhleease, let's get some!
If you need more people to be involved, I'll start phoning friends.

OK Rik, get up off the floor, it's not good for a man to beg, lol. I'll see what I can do, but got to get this first co-op out.
Same plant I'll wager.......
I'd like a piece of that. How much will you wager?
My black magic looks like midnight to me.
Heyyyy Cala---me interested too! I love colocasias of any kind. :)
Hey Susie, I'm interested too!!
Suzie, what's the chance of getting Micky Mouse ele. ear?
Roz, they don't have that one listed yet.
One day we will run across one. I have never seen one anywhere here for sale.
M. Mouse shows up on ebay from time to time and was offered at GW recently. You just have to keep your ear to the ground ... and learn its mile-long botanical name.
To me they look puckered and deformed. I'd much rather have a nice, cleanly variegated upright.
