Royal Hawaiian Colocasia

Colocasia-royalhawaiian

11 cultivars

The Royal Hawaiian Colocasia collection features a distinctive group of tropical elephant-ear plants specifically selected for their bold foliage, strong landscape performance, and dramatic color variations. Depending on the cultivar, the large, heart-shaped leaves range from bright golden-chartreuse to deep mahogany and near-black, with many varieties displaying striking contrasting veins or creamy-white centers. These vigorous, clumping perennials thrive in high heat and humidity, supported by sturdy, colorful petioles. Because they require consistently moist to saturated soils, they are exceptionally well-suited for water gardens, boggy landscape areas, and large decorative containers where soil moisture can be maintained. Whether featured as a standalone architectural specimen or grouped together to showcase their stunning foliar contrasts, these plants bring an immediate, lush tropical presence to patios and warm-climate gardens.
