Colocasia Pharoahs Mask

Description

Colocasia ‘Pharaoh’s Mask’ is an extraordinary elephant ear variety that commands attention with its deeply sculpted foliage. Unlike traditional Colocasias, its large, dark green leaves feature prominent, raised purple-black veins that create a dramatic three-dimensional effect, giving the plant an almost living, animated appearance. As the plant matures, its veining becomes even more pronounced, adding depth and texture to its striking silhouette.

Thriving in full sun to partial shade, Pharaoh’s Mask flourishes in rich, consistently moist soil, making it ideal for tropical gardens, pond margins, and statement container plantings. Hardy in USDA zones 8-11, it can be overwintered indoors in cooler climates by storing the tubers. With its bold, sculptural form and commanding presence, Colocasia ‘Pharaoh’s Mask’ is an exceptional choice for gardeners looking to create a dramatic, eye-catching focal point in their landscape.
