First the plant is usually an understory plant in the areas which I have observed however they thrive in full sun also. This is good.
The plant is used as an atrium filler plant in many northern applications.
Overwintering in a (your plants have to be big) large container with low light usually is no issue for an average grow space. The plant is a dripper though.
Mature plants have a 5x5+ robust footprint.
The plant in grow zones 10 and up is an outstanding year round plant.

Very nice, yeah apparently some certain types can grow big even in those zones.
I currently have a few pups my mother gave me from her neighbor. I have no idea what species they are but I'm pretty sure they are Colocasia.
I still have plenty of space in the yard so thinking about going all out and getting the Thailand Giant...
