Brian's Botanicals This plant was grown by Kean in Indiana. He may have grown the largest plant yet?

Brian's Botanicals This is a photos of Mark Currys Colocasia Gigantea. Mark works for me and took 3 plants home. These plants were in 4 inch pots and they were planted a bit late in the season. I believe he got them just over 8 feet tall. With morning sun and afternoon shade.
Here is Mark with his plant this was taken mid summer and it grew larger than this photo.

Brian's Botanicals I am very interested in seeing photos of peoples Colocasia Gigantea (Thailand Giant). I have grown them to 8 feet tall and have friends that have gotten them even larger. Do any of you have amazing photos of this plant anyone have the largest plant the tallest or largest leaves? So post your photos and let see who has grown this one the best.

Brian's Botanicals Cool weather has started coming in to Kentucky. We have started bringing in all the tender tropicals for the year. A lot of plants will be tested for cold hardiness it seems this season.

The IAS now has a facebook account. If you are not familiar with the IAS it is the International Aroid Society. This society deals in all the plants of the Araceae family such as Alocasia Colocasia Amorphophallus Philodendrons and so one. Many of the plants I sell and grow are in this family and if you are as crazy abo...ut these plants as me joining the IAS is a must. Here is a link to both their website and their new Facebook account

Brian-I had NO idea you had a Facebook! I always click on ONLINE store everytime I hit your home page, so I warp right past it...glad I found you! I am going to try to make it to Louisville to visit you in person...I've been DROOLING over your website for quite a few years now, and your site is what convinced me that... I could tackle tropicals that most people would avoid here (SC). I have "rescued" quite a few Basjoo's, and after two years in the ground here, I've got a 14 footer. I have turned 2 Portora's into about 14 in two years, and 3 Dwarf Cavendish nanners into what I've counted at 17 this year!!! Lord, regular plants are so boring! I want Pink China more than anything right now, but would settle for one of the PUNY Alocasia Borneo Giants!! Anyhoo, glad to have found you on here!!!Read More

Allen Brian, Thanks so much for touring us around yesterday. I loved seeing what you're doing. Of course, it's always fun coming away with a few plants, too. THANKS! Come and visit sometime.

Flint River AnimalHospital Hey thanks for the plants! I ordered a few off of ebay about a month ago. Everything arrived very healthy and ready for the dirt.
The "coffee cups" and the rice paper plant are looking great! The varigated Cana is also sending up new leaves daily. Glad I found you guys! Great unique stuff!

Brett Miller Thanks for the plants and the visit Brian. I'm going to send you an email just so I can have a written record of some of the things we talked about today. Thanks again.

Chris Morris I received my siam ruby today. AWESOME plant. Thank you very much to everyone at Brians Motanicles !

Brian's Botanicals Jan I am interested in both I use to have the variegated form years ago. I have been getting request for both lately which is odd sense most people don't ask me for these types of plants often. Tomorrow we will be splitting up the egyptian papyrus. We pot

I already have a pot of each for you - figured you would want them.....there wasn't much of the var, but it really grows fast, so hpefully by the time I get over, it will be a respectable pot....LOL

I have 2 types of the Egy pap - one gets about 5-6' tall and grows kike the weed it is, the other maxes out at about 30' and is really slow to increase.....if you want a start of it, I will pull off a couple for you - maybe they would be happier at your place,

On another note, I have 3 basjoo pups just breaking thru the soil - they are small pups - found them yesterday.....the older plants show no life, but the pups look good.....guess, kids are just tough, huh.... Read More

Hope to see you guys soon
