'Mojito'","description":"\u003cem\u003eColocasia esculenta\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, commonly called taro or elephant ear, is a tuberous, stemless, frost-tender perennial of the arum family (see also calla lily and jack-in-the-pulpit) which typically grows 3-6' tall and as wide. For gardeners, it is primarily grown as a foliage plant with huge, heart-shaped to arrowhead-shaped, conspicuously-veined, downward-pointing, peltate leaves (to 2' long) on long, stout, succulent stems. As the common name suggests, each leaf purportedly resembles an elephant's ear. The typical aroid-type with yellowish-white spathes and spadixes are infrequently produced and usually hidden by the foliage when they do occur. This species is also commercially grown as a food crop in Hawaii (poi is made from the tubers) where it is commonly called taro.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Youngblood","offers":[{"title":"4 in","offer_id":47169852735677,"sku":null,"price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/verdantyakima.com\/products\/colocasia-esc-mojito","provider":"Verdant Yakima","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
