Re: Colocasia "Black Magic" - reverting?

From: Lester Kallus <lkallus at earthlink.net> on 1999.05.18 at 15:04:42(3369) In fact I have and it did. Thanks all for the advice. At least there's one plant I won't have to replace this year. Furthermore, I'm glad to see it can be stored safely over the winter. Now one more question: The tuber didn't sprout from the center. Instead there are smaller Colocasias growing fromt he sides of the tuber. Can the be safely separated now that they each have about 2 or 3 leaves or is it too late and should I wait until the end of the season when the tuber is dug up? I do plan to grow it in direct sunlight. It appears that's the way to get the largest tubers possible. That was the advice last year and it worked.
