Taro is a big leafy plant that grows in warm, wet places. Its large, heart-shaped leaves are fun to touch and look at!
生息地: Taro grows in marshy areas and tropical regions around the world.
The Taro has enormous, heart-shaped to sagitate leaves, often a striking green with prominent veins, and sometimes purple or dark red stems. Its velvety, water-repellent foliage gives it a unique appearance, distinct from other large-leaved plants.
