We are very pleased to offer another 2012 elephant ear release from John Cho's Royal Hawaiian colocasia series. Colocasia 'Maui Gold' is the first clumping gold leaf colocasia to hit the market, forming a tight clump of stems that arch to 4', each ending in a large chartreuse golden leaf, highlighted by a small purple dot where the petiole connects. Colocasia 'Maui Gold' serves as a nice foil to black elephant ears such as Colocasia 'Black Coral'.
