I adore Colocasias, they're my top 3 genus of plant. That being said, I don't keep them as houseplants, I've found they really dislike being indoors AND they attract spidermites like no other plant I've ever had. I use them in the garden, and that's really when they look the best in my opinion. I do think people are going to be disspointed in these new hybrids when they get their hands on them, BECAUSE they're so annoying to grow indoors, you really do need HIGH light, and tons of nutrient and water to keep these guys in tip top shape. I always buy/order them in packs of tubers,it's a gamble because there are times where you order something and get something else because they often get mixed up, but these really are plants you should buy as tubers and save mad money on.

@spoochymcgoo1616 2 года назад

Do you grow in leca or some soil combo?

@majormisstake6118 2 года назад

I agree. Alocasia and colocasia struggle with me indoors but thrive outdoors in the summer. I also thought they are perennial so they go dormant in the winter like a birch tree or a Venus fly trap. I'm not an expert just a nerd.

@inesnathaliengoua 2 года назад

I can confirm all this i live in gabon (africa) in a humid and hot climate. No lower than 23 degrees at night. And they prefer full sun in a high humidity area. They do attract spidermites just like alocasias. They like having a deep rich dense soil to grow in and to not get over watered but stay moist. If you are growing them huge indoor props to you.

@none-ya-dam821 2 года назад

I grow Colocasias inside here in central Florida. They grow fine. I’ve had to kick some outside cause they get to big. I collect them.

@Kaylee Ellen - in Hawaiian “WAI” sounds like “WHY” So Waikiki is “WHY-Kee-Kee” (Wai means “fresh water” btw) and Colocasia are called Taro here, and are a huge part of the culture as they where a main food source during the pre contact period. I have a bunch of “black Ruffles” and they have the coolest subtle color patterns on their leaf.

I bought 5 taro corns from the produce section of a grocery store last year for around $3. They grew into huge elephant ears. They are just the basic green colocasia. But for landscaping purposes it was a very cheap way to make a massive impact Tip - They need to be started indoors a couple months before the last frost. It’ll take frustratingly long. Put them in soil in a warm place & keep the soil lightly damp. No light is needed until they break the soil. If you’re patient, they will sprout & be very rewarding 🌱 Edit, I got a white lava plug last year. It barely got any white veins after a full season outside. I also got one of the black varieties as a plug. Both plugs really struggled to thrive. By the end of the season they were about 1.5ft tall with 4”-6” leaves. By contrast, the green taro I grew from corms were easily 5ft tall with 3ft+ leaves, absolutely massive. I suspect that plugs will need several seasons worth of babying to establish corms & really go gang busters like when you start from a large corm

@TheBarefootedGardener 2 года назад

They could have been diseased. If they aren’t growing crazy fast chances are, they are not getting enough sun, it’s not hot enough outside, or they have mosaic virus/ something else. I guarantee you that a lot of the varieties that have disfigured leaves are bred with virus. And if that’s the case, any aroids you plant nearby or in that spot or pot will also catch it. Sanitation with bleach, and cleaning your tools is really really important. Please learn from my mistake. I lost tons of aroids from mosaic virus.

@jo-hl3yw 2 года назад

I *love* my colocasia pharoah's mask, it really loves the light (or direct sun). I use a sansi 36w bulb on it, and it is always reaching towards it, the stems only stop elongating once its about a hand length away from the light. Can confirm that it is a prolific grower

@YoutubeUserHello 2 года назад

If anyone reading this wants a fun project, or wants to see how some of these plants would fare in your home, go to the grocery store and pick up some taro corms! Here in the United States there are three species sold as taro: eddoe (Colocasia antiquorum), looks like a brown egg in terms of size/shape; taro (Colocasia esculenta), looks like a giant version of eddoe; malanga AKA yautía (Xanthosoma sagittifolium), looks like a brown cucumber. Of the three, the first is the most common, and the latter two are usually only seen in Asian grocery stores. Grocery store labeling and even the Google search results mix them up frequently. All three have cultivars which are popular in the ornamental plant trade. For example, C antiquorum 'Illustris' and C esculenta 'Hawaiian Punch' both mentioned in this video. The most common cultivar of X sagittifolium in the houseplant trade seems to be X sagittifolium 'Mickey Mouse.'

@GrowingSouth 2 года назад

Diamond Head is readily available here (deep south US) during the growing season, and what that image doesn't portray is how there is a literal crystal sheen overlaid on top of each leaf. Hawaiian punch is also readily available here - have several clumps myself and they are a beautiful vigorous grower. Same with Mojito here as far as availability - they have a satin overlay on the leaf. Quite muted, and very worth having. White lava and tropical storm - easy to find here, Tropical storm is one of my favorites to grow due to its beauty and contrast - no velvet, rather more of a flat overlay - sorry Kaylee :( Jellyfish looks sick... like its too hot and it cant deal. NO. lol Im surprised Electric blue gecko didn't make it. I have one, changes colors throughout the day, sometimes deep purple, sometimes electric blue and shiny - beautiful. This Genus is a "quick-bucks" genus for the reasons you stated - totally agree. The growth rate and ease of propagation would definitively drive market value down rapidly. If grown properly a quart sized plant can well over quadruple in size within a single growing season with any member of the genus. For this reason, I would never pay more than $30 USD for any start of these plants. They need direct sun, rich biodiversity in the soil, heat, loads of water with rapid drainage unless grown on the edge of a body of water, and loads of nutrients and TADA... giant colocasia. Also, last note: Some members of this genus will clump, while others will run via stolon.

@amelie9271 2 года назад

Yep! I’m in the deep south US and a lot of these varieties (and except for the super rare, of course) can be found at any of our local nurseries. I love Midori Sour, I didn’t see that one here. I grow most of mine in water, and they can be found in ditches all around. I find that’s where they do best with some regular fertilizing.

@perseffany 2 года назад

I pay around that price wholesale for tiny babies of the wholesale "Waikiki" from the patent holder. "Pharaoh's Mask" is also super expensive, patented, and so the propagating easily point sadly goes out the window for some of them.

@jeepgirl7254 2 года назад

Yes, another proud member of the "Deep South Club" here. I'm in Arkansas, have many of these varieties. I'm sure they are rare for the UK. Mine stay outside year round, always in a constant trickle of water that is drainage of natural springs. I don't fertilize mine, I feel they get enough on their own. Their leaves on average are about 2-2.5' wide x 3-3.5' long and huge blooms. Some are in full shade and some full sun. It's the water that makes the world of difference! Mine in water are up out of the ground now, the ones in dry ground have not yet peeked out at all.

@TheBarefootedGardener 2 года назад

The leaf coloration is both based on how much sun the plant gets, and also the newest leaves are the most colorful; the older ones generally fade in color a little bit. I think a lot of the varieties that look similar also are different heights.

@northernplantuckyplantcinc2630 2 года назад

I believe much like caladiums, colocasia, most of them require a dormancy. More heat , humidity, Light and Water. Unless you live in a tropical climate they are best as an outdoor summer display plant, and then dug up and stored in a cool dry place until temperatures go above 60 Fahrenheit

@fitvegancatmama 2 года назад

One thing I have to say about Colocasia, they do NOT like to dry out. Not in the least. I live in Miami and I keep mine outdoors. Needless to say, the outdoor humidity here is ridiculously high. Regardless, it was a huge learning curve for me as they kept wilting no matter what I did. I finally put them in a rather large saucer in order for them to never dry out. That was the trick! So they are potted in soil and live on a tray of water, basically a semi-hydro situation. And they absolutely LOVE it!! I have no idea how people can plant these in the ground 🤷🏻‍♀️

@TamaraMcRill 2 года назад

I keep mine outside in the nursery pot with a cover pot to hold water and bring inside for winter. (In Illinois.) It means I split it a lot but oh well. I just tore down a shed and am contemplating a colocasia garden but idk if I'll put them in the ground.

It suffered yellow leaves and root rot when I used a more dense soil that held too much water. When it’s happy it puts out new leaves very fast. Once we get past our frost date it’s going to go outside.

My regular degular green ones last year got to 1x2 foot leaves in two months after a very slow start off dormant corms. They have gorgeous depth of green on green on green color on the leaves up close. They add great tropical vibes for cheap in my decidedly temperate garden, so much that I've already ordered a few novelty varieties and am desperately looking for a specific cultivar as a Mother's Day gift for my Mom.

@AbigailButcher 2 года назад

I looove my fontanesii, mine has darker leaves than the photos I see online, they are also quite thick and quite large. Also the color of the black coral pairs very nicely with it, it’s leaves are slightly smaller than the fontanesii and thinner, and it has been burned by the sun in a couple spots. (I live in a very hot place) I’m a sucker for dark foliage but that Waikiki is definitely one I’d buy if I saw it at a local nursery!

I genuinely wasn't very much into Colocasia before I got my first one. We do have a few specimens of the ''Mojito'' in my school's greenhouse, so I ended up snatching a corm, brought it back home and man does it grow fast! I love a rewarding plant, especially since I mostly collect Philodendron, Alocasia and Monstera which are slow growers for the most part... ''Pharaoh's Mask'' was already on my wishlist but I've now added the ''Nebula'' and ''Witchery'' cultivars to it. Let's hope that they end up being affordable at some point!

I plant my taro bulbs in straight compost. They grow super fast and are hungry. Elephant ears have been a favorite of mine since childhood. I also grow them outside and let the foliage die back in the fall and store the bulbs. I’m in Michigan, so it’s way too cold to just leave them outside.

I have a colocasia illustris and the dark colour comes with the light. The more light it gets the darker the leaves will emerge :)

Rewatching this is 2024 I just bought a juvenile colocasia redemption for 16 euros,. 2 years ago the same plant ''this costs 11 THOUSAND dollars''. Crazy how the market works. I also got a juvenile pharaoh's mask for the same price.

Pharaohs's mask, hands down. By far. I immediately saw a prehistoric, venomous sort of centipede, the size of a bobcat. Damn. That is one cool plant.

Mojito are at Walmarts in the USA. This is wild to see just how things can vary or change over night.

@knitwitchpgh 2 года назад

I was thinking the same my mojito was like 10$

@amelie9271 2 года назад

Yep! They’re all over every Walmart and Home Depot here.

I have to say that I love Colocasia. I've had a few. The issue that I have with these plants is that they are Spider mite magnets!!! Every single one that I had was destroyed by these pest. Its very stressful having to constantly be watchful. For this reason, besides the absurd cost of some of these, I would never own one again. Sad, because I really love them. Thank you for the video, I didn't know some of these existed. Great video!

I love colacasia as garden plants in my warm Costa Rica Weather, I grow Colacasia 'Black Magic' or 'Black Coral' in a lot of places. Recently got an ilustris and it's amazing. The Thai Giant I think it looks a lot like Xanthosomas that grow native here, so I don't grow anything like that :P What I think is most of the times Colacasias generally don't do so well in pots for me, I think they grow the best in the garden on special moist places.

I would love to see a 2022 investment plant video! I would get a lot of value out of a video like that. Currently I’m trying to guess at what hits the spot, currently some odd balls are in the lead.

So many plants I've never seen! Thanks for a fun index. If Waikiki is referencing the place in Hawaii, "why-kee-kee" is the better pronunciation.

Thank you for the information, you must review about C. Burning Inferno. That is really gorgeous.

@ashleytilley8997 2 года назад

This was a fun one! I don't like the rolled look either. My Mojito just started opening its first leaf! I just got a White Lava and a Hawaiian unch today!!

@wendyacker245 2 года назад

I actually saw Hawaiian Punch and the one before that with the pink stems for sale at Lowes ,well the tubers, . Lowes is a big box store in the US.

I bought a mojito tuber once and it died in lecca. I was sooo sad because I love it so much!! 😭 They're quite inexpensive coming from the Netherlands

Been planning to buy a Taro root to hopefully get a big green one. Had no idea there were so many crazy colours possible on colocasias😅

Batman is stellar! I would totally love at another video on the best investment plants and those top 10 vids. I still watch them! 🦋

@RhianChambers Год назад

I fall in love with almost every alocasia and the first colocasia I like on this list is the mojito, why do colocasia seem to underwhelm me so much? it doesn’t make sense I fully expected to have a massive list of colocasia that I would want. But that hasn’t happened

@jojosandgigi 2 года назад

Yes please make a video about investment plants.... thank you!!!!!!🤗

@plant0e_237 2 года назад

I live in a tropical place and most of common colocasia i see survive in a gutter and colocasia pahroh mask only cost like about £15-20 per one big pot.

@bragastraat2288 2 года назад

I'm into colocasia lately. Recently got myself a black magic and a lime gecko. Now waiting for my white lava to arrive. I think you should do a banana series, there are really expensive bananas out there

@davidfarner2768 2 года назад

Tea cups are still hot on market but the problem with them is spider mites doesn’t matter time of year or environment.

@TheMissDiva0001 2 года назад

I’m in Florida, USA & colocasia are stunning & readily available most places. HOWEVER, they do ship very poorly because their leaves are so thin. I’ve bought from shops where they actually cut the leaves off and send a corm since they are almost guaranteed to suffer damage in the mail. Maybe not the best for a large scale shop, potentially could take a lot of losses in shipping damage. Just my opinion from my experience :) !

@careyjohnston4176 2 года назад

Your so great for just being honest about the pricing of new and so called rare plants. Many of these colocasia I have available to me for a few years. It depends on whether there has been hype over the particular variety. For instance the philodendron pink princess I found in one of my catalogs about 10 years ago and yes just a 4 inch pot was 50 dollars. But when the so called rarity of plant started as hype. 5 years later it was selling for no less than 100 dollars for even a node. Yes I remember prices and date of availability of certain plants. The same seller has the plant for 500 dollars. Funny huh
