Colocasia adiana

A Colocasia described in 2019 from Arunachal Pradesh in northeast India, apparently named for the Adi people of the Siang valleys. There are no located wild records and nothing beyond the description, so grow it like other northeast Indian Colocasia: warm, wet summers and a cooler, drier winter.
