thank you very much

Are you sure it's the Black Magic variety? Like Carol mentioned, it turns
green when it doesn't get enough sun. There is Imperial Taro that is sort
of half & half, that gets more green than black with too much sun (or it
could be not enough nutrients) this year I'm putting mine in the pond
rather than a stand alone urn to see if it does better. ~ jan
