This 2011 Plant Delights Nursery introduction is a solid gold leaf sport from Alan Galloway's Colocasia 'Limeade'. Although similar to Colocasia 'Elena' in color, Colocasia 'Lemonade' has proven to be far superior in our winter hardiness trials. Despite our record-setting hot summers, the massive 7' clumps of Colocasia 'Lemonade' looked great in full sun...as long as the soil remained moist.
