Taro is a versatile food crop grown in China, Japan, and the West Indies. Its corms and lateral tubers, called eddos, are edible and can be cooked in various ways. Dasheen is a key ingredient in callaloo, a popular Caribbean dish that features tender, mushroom-like shoots produced by growing corms in the dark.

Dasheen, also known as Taro or Cocoyam, is a versatile crop, grown primarily for its large and nutrient-rich corms. This highly sought after plant thrives in sub-tropical and tropical regions, 

Dasheen typically reaches a height of 1 m (3 ft) and boasts tall stems with heart-shaped, green leaves. To achieve optimal growth, this plant requires warm and humid conditions without frost or harsh winters.

However, frost and extended periods of cold weather can be detrimental to Dasheen. With a wide range of varieties to choose from, this large

  • Frost tender, and frosts will kill the plants
  • Does best in deep, rich, well-drained soil with neutral to slightly acid pH
