No, it's not Illustris. I have that, too. It could be a 'Black Magic' that has reverted to green because I have it in shade. Light is a factor in leaf colorations many times. I moved it to a brighter location today and will let you know. After reading a bit more about Black Runner, it is supposed to be a better cultivar (it's newer) than Black Magic. It spreads by underground STOLONS, whereas Black Magic is a clumper. Which means that Black Runner could end up in places you might not want it. So it would need plenty of room to romp. Susan

Hi! Does anyone know how Colocasia esculentas will do near a hot tub or pool? I plan on planting them about 5ft away, and doubt they'll get splashed every day, but I'm sure some hot/chlorinated water will get on them occasionally. Any experience with this? Thanks! If cultivar matters, I'm considering Black Magic and Mojito.
