White bat flower (Tacca integrifolia).

Potting and Repotting
This plant does not like being root-bound, and it appreciates an annual soil change using a rich, well-draining potting mix. Choose a wide, shallow pot suitable for the plant's size. A clay pot with drainage is ideal for maintaining healthy roots.

If you need to repot a batflower that has outgrown its container, do so in the spring before its growing season revs up. Avoid repotting a plant when it is flowering. When repotting an established plant, it's a good time to take a division to start a new plant. You also can trim off older rhizomes, leaves, and roots during repotting.
