Tips for Success: 

Fast and easy-to-grow the Taro Root is almost foolproof and the large leaves a pleasure to grow.

• Grow in full sun. The more sun the better, although they will   grow under varying light levels.• Fertilize moderately but be consistent. Too much feed can   burn the foliage.• In the summer water freely. They can be grown in water or at   the water's edge. • For container and garden planting keep evenly moist.• In winter, tubers can be dug and stored in a basement,   keeping some moisture around the root. Or grow inside as a   houseplant.
