Pruning colocasia puckered up — FAQ
When should I prune colocasia puckered up?
Year-round for dead-leaf removal; late autumn for hard cutback in cold climates. Sever spent petioles cleanly at the base. For cold-climate overwintering, cut all stems to 2–3 inches above the corm after frost, and cover with a generous mulch layer to protect it.
How often does colocasia puckered up need pruning?
As needed throughout the growing season; once annually for frost-climate cutback. Colocasia 'Puckered Up' requires only routine dead-leaf removal. Pull or cut away any yellowing, torn, or diseased leaves at the petiole base as they appear. The puckered leaf texture and bold form are natural growth habits requiring no shaping. In frost climates, cut back hard after frost and mulch the corm.
