Colocasia hassanii

A Colocasia described from Bangladesh in 2018 by H. Ara. There are no wild records, so the climate is for a reference point near Dhaka, which gives a hot, monsoonal, winter-dry pattern typical of the country. Grow it like a tropical Colocasia: warm, wet and bright in summer, drier and cooler in winter.
