Black Magic Giant

I think this is the biggest Black Magic we have ever had. This guy stands almost 5 feet tall and 5 feet wide. This is one that we pulled out of the greenhouse in the spring and set in the large pond where it has grown ever since. Sadly the enjoyment is almost over for this year. Today is November 15th and the weather guy is predicting a hard freeze in a few days so this plant will look really sad. When that happens, I'll chop him back and store him in the greenhouse for the winter. Below is a picture of one of the beautiful leaves that is almost 20 inches long and 12 inches wide.
