Colocasia, apparently, are the big thing this year in American gardening. Garden Rant picked up on it early in spring and their prediction appears to have been good - they are, as you say, everywhere.
I wonder if it will take off over here? Although on HTUK people have been growing Colocasia for so long that there's even a biggest leaf contest! When Wilkos started selling them, even I bought one!
I love, I mean LOVE, the third pic down J. The contrasts of colours and leaf shapes. I may have to do something similar next year!!!lol!
They're ace aren't they? I'm not very good with angiosperm identification but I would guess they're mostly tradescantias of some description with that cascading effect, although whatever the purple one is I'm pretty sure Gaz and MarkD have one.
