Hello All--
I am seeking a few Black Magic Elephant Ears. Would anyone happen to have some extra that they would consider trading me? I have a variety of plants I could offer for trade. I only had one to come back this year and I would like to have some more growing around my house foundation. Thank you. :)
Would like to have: Black Magic Elephant Ears

If so, I have a few.

Bromeliads?????

Armando, your Black Runner sounds interesting. And I am not sure for a fact if it is not the same even tho I have never thought of the 'Black Magic' as a runner. Here is a site on the 'Black Magic' I am looking for. http://greenwoodnursery.com/page.cfm/10436
Does the Black Runner get completely black leaves?
Yes they start dark green and end up black.
Don't know why they call them runners.
Guess, because they reproduce fast
The link you sent is very dark, can't see well.
just check the Dave's Database a plant under the name
Family------Araceae
Genus------Colocasia
Species---Esculenta
And see if that is what you want.
Keep me posted, Armando
