Taro, Elephant Ear 'Black Magic'
Colocasia esculenta
Additional info: (aka Jet Black Wonder)

Started from a store-bought 1-Gallon plant a year ago, this Black Magic growing in Rockledge, Florida (32955) is now about 5 ft above ground. With sun for at least a good part of the day and with lots of water, the Black Magic becomes a prolific multiplier. This photo shows an young green leaf before the change in its color.
