I had this plant last season, it did not do well. I couldn;t seem to keep it watered enough. It was planted right beside another farfugium, the "leopard spot" one (which is doing GREAT, has never had any problem, and just finished blooming.)

I have wondered if perhaps its too hot for the gigantia here in summer.

I'd offer to grab you one, but, I got mine at a plant sale at a botanical garden, and haven;t seen it around here in nurseries. Good luck though!
