Introduce a bold, structural element to your space with Xanthosoma sagittifolium.
This high-impact specimen is defined by massive, arrow-shaped foliage that can reach a width of 70cm and a length exceeding 1 metre at maturity.
Beyond its ornamental value, it is a globally prized food source; the nutrient-rich underground cormels, known as Tannia, provide a starch staple similar to a potato once properly cooked.
This species is engineered for rapid expansion. Under ideal warm and humid conditions, it can skyrocket to a height of over 2 metres within a single season.
The underground development is equally aggressive, with edible tubers typically reaching harvestable maturity in just 9 to 11 months.
It is a prolific self-propagator, continuously generating new "pups" from the base to create a dense, tropical cluster in a very short timeframe.
While it is a powerhouse in frost-free gardens, it adapts beautifully as a dramatic indoor floor plant in bright, indirect light, provided it is shielded from cold drafts which can trigger dormancy.
To ensure the safest transit, this plant is shipped bare-rooted with cormels secured in moisture-retaining wraps. A R25.00 long-stem packaging fee is included in the shipping cost to provide the reinforced structural support necessary for its foliage.
How to Checkout:
As these are individual auction wins, please manually add R25.00 per plant to the "Additional Charges" or "Packaging" field at checkout when prompted. This ensures each plant gets its own protective sleeve for a 100% safe arrival. Thank you!
