Colocasia 'Mojito'

The patent records a branch mutation of 'Midnight' found at Agristarts, Apopka, in 2007; Plant Delights instead describes it as a sport of 'Burgundy Stem' via 'Black Marble'. More vigorous and larger-leaved than 'Midnight', with green leaves speckled purple-black; the patent says the pattern is stable, and it is hardy to zone 7b with mulch.
