My C. gigantea 'Thailand Giant' is blooming. Is there a way to ensure pollination or will the bugs take care of that? I want to get some seeds to trade.
How to pollinate Colocasia gigantea
Beautiful bloom, if you get seeds I would love to be in on the trade.
It is known to produce seed itself to insure this I would suggest getting the pollen on to the female section of the flowers. I have posted a few detailed post on how to pollinate aroids.
Brian, could you post some links to your info on pollinating aroids?

I believe this link will work it was called pollination 101 it shows me breeding colocasias. If you want it to self pollinate putting its own pollen back on the same flower will work for some plants I believe gigantea is known for this.
