Xanthosoma

submitted by Steve Ritchey on July 16, 2005
Height 6' (2m), blades 18" X 24" (35X45cm). This may not be the ultimate size.
I leave them in the ground in USDA Zone 7B.
Petioles striped pale yellow green, silver green, olive, dark brown.
Blades variable - some just have a puckered white margin.
All of the variegation is a dirty pale yellow when the blades unfurl, but turns white within about 48 hours.
