    So what do you do just bury them and keep them moist like a sweet potato? Also, does it need acidic sool to thriv

      Yes exactly that. Just below the surface. Normal compost is fine. Pointy end up 😊

    I overwintered colocasia Metallica here in liverpool, all came back. Mulched under woodbark chippings in the ground

    Wonderful! And your rearranged tree ferns are all looking very happy. ^^ It's so funny how you said it's like an alien life form because I was just thinking this about plants the other day! Yes indeed! They are wondrous!

    Hi Mark, great video as always. I’ve had the colocasia bug this year and been experimenting with them also, esculenta is an interesting one for sure.
    One of my findings is that all colocasia seem to have different growth habits, they either run, corm or clump, or a mixture of all three!
    Pink china is great because it corms and runs, very reliable because of it.
    The esculenta I find clumps, but doesn’t corm or run, from my experience anyway, although I’ve not had them in the ground long enough to see if they create more bulbs/ corms.

    Hi Mark,
    I purchased 4 Eddoe bulbs from a similar shop as you, here in Stoke. They have grown really well however, can you tell me what is the different between Taro and Eddoes? Ta me duk 🌴🪴🌱
