{"product_id":"colocasia-pharaohs-mask-red-bulbs-uk","title":"Colocasia 'Pharaoh's Mask Red'","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith its extraordinary sculpted foliage, \u003ci\u003eColocasia\u003c\/i\u003e 'Pharaoh's Mask Red' looks almost too remarkable to be real. Enormous, heart-shaped leaves emerge in a rich, glossy green, dramatically traced with raised crimson-red veins that spread across the surface like an intricate network of sculpted lines. As the foliage matures, the veins become increasingly pronounced, while the leaf edges curl backwards to create a fascinating three-dimensional effect. The contrast between the smooth, emerald-green surface and deep red markings is particularly striking, especially when sunlight catches the glossy leaves. Unlike its dark-veined relative, the original Pharaoh's Mask, \u003ci\u003eColocasia\u003c\/i\u003e 'Pharaoh's Mask Red' brings a warmer, more colourful interpretation of this extraordinary foliage. It's a wonderful choice for creating a bold, architectural statement among tropical plants and contrasting greenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped by American plant breeder Brian Williams, \u003ci\u003eColocasia\u003c\/i\u003e 'Pharaoh's Mask Red' combines dramatic looks with vigorous, clump-forming growth. In favourable conditions, it can reach around 120–150cm tall, producing an impressive display of oversized leaves that move gently in the summer breeze. Choose a warm, sheltered position in sun or partial shade, with fertile, moisture-retentive soil and generous watering throughout the growing season. Brighter light can encourage richer red veining, adding even more character to the foliage. \u003ci\u003eColocasia\u003c\/i\u003e 'Pharaoh's Mask Red' looks magnificent in a spacious patio container, where its remarkable leaves can be admired from every angle. Protect it from frost during winter in the UK, ideally by moving container-grown plants somewhere sheltered and frost-free. With its sculptural form and unforgettable colouring, \u003ci\u003eColocasia\u003c\/i\u003e 'Pharaoh's Mask Red' brings a wonderfully exotic atmosphere to the summer garden.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farmer Gracy","offers":[{"title":"1 tuber","offer_id":60241632330112,"sku":"COLPHAMASRED1TU","price":36.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"3 tubers","offer_id":60241632362880,"sku":"COLPHAMASRED3TU","price":98.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1308\/3047\/files\/colocasia-pharoahs-mask-red-00.jpg?v=1793802671","url":"https:\/\/www.farmergracy.co.uk\/products\/colocasia-pharaohs-mask-red-bulbs-uk","provider":"Farmer Gracy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
