Colocasia gigantea, also called giant elephant ear or Indian taro, is a 1.5–3 m tall herb with a large, fibrous, inedible corm, producing at its apex a whorl of large leaves. The leaf stalk is used as a vegetable in some areas in South East Asia and Japan.
Its enormous leaves grow at an astonishing speed when the weather is warm (not hot!)and for this reason it is becoming a popular ornamental for those who have the space.
Colocasia gigantea is close to Alocasia macrorrhizos and is thought to be produced from natural crossing between A. macrorrhizos and C. esculenta.
This is the strain called "Thai Giant".
