CLOSED: Elephant Ears for Beginners

Wesley Chapel, FL(Zone 9a)

Hello,

I have a few colocasia Illustris to spare.

I would like them to go to beginning gardners, who don't have plants to trade.

I would ask that you pay the postage. It won't be much, since the plants are small.

When I send colocasias, I put the roots in a small amount of damp potting soil mixed with peat moss.

Illustris can be grown in full sun, or part shade. They will spread to form a cluster; mine started out as one plant.

The plants have been fitting into a small Priority Flat Rate box - the postage is $4.80, no matter where it's being mailed to.

Please Dmail me if interested, rather than posting here.

I'd love to have one of these but I'm not a newbie without plants so I won't ask for one. But I wanted to know if those have like a black tint to the leaves or are they just a very dark green? I bought a couple of Black Magic last year and I got the normal giant EE this year so I'm just learning about these, that's why I ask.
