Planting Data
Carol's Tahitian Spinach (divided) Care Instructions
Taro normally tends to reach to a mature height of 1.20 metres [imperial: 3.90 feet] so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.
Remember to water very often.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (11) is not within the ideal known range for Taro. The recommended range is between Zone 7 and 10. You may have to reassess this planting for suitability in your garden.
Ensure your soil has a ph of between 6.0 and 6.5 as Taro is a acidic soil loving plant.
Keep an eye out for these common Taro problems: Aphids and Red Spider Mite.
