Nothing screams tropical in the summer garden than the magnificent Elephant Ear! These beloved, easy to grow tubers produce the most dramatic, exotic foliage summer to fall. There are two main types of Elephant Ears - Alocasia (upward pointing, glossy leaves) and Colocasia (tall stems with velvety leaves that hang similar to elephants's ears). Elephant Ears range in color, height, pattern and texture. Colocasia esculenta is grown in Hawaii for food and is commonly known as taro.

About this Variety

Elephant Ear Antiquorum Illustris has won awards for its beautiful foliage. A bold and impressive Elephant Ear classic. It is heat tolerant, fast growing, adaptable as a houseplant and can be used as a water plant since it loves moist areas.

Growing Instructions

Plant Elephant Ears outdoors in the spring after all danger of frost has passed. Elephant Ears thrive in a full sun to partially shaded spot in moist, rich soil. Elephant Ears will tolerate full sun but prefer to have a little shade. Plant tubers 2-4" deep and 18-24" apart. When planting a large number of bulbs in one bed, excavate the entire area to the recommended depth, work fertilizer into the bottom of the trench, set out bulbs and then cover all at once. Water thoroughly at planting. While actively growing, water frequently and thoroughly so that water will reach roots. Mulch to keep the soil cool and to prevent the soil from drying out. Fertilize at planting and during growing season every two to three weeks. In areas where Elephant Ears are not winter hardy, dig up tubers in fall before frost. Clean off roots and store at 50ºF. Replant tubers in spring after all danger of frost has passed.

Care Tip

Elephant Ears are suitable for large pots, raised beds and will grow in standing water. Water well during dry periods. Some varieties of Elephant Ears can be grown indoors in a very bright location in consistently moist soil.

HONEST REVIEW: Dont waste your money: 2001 330Ci (pre-LCI)
Color: Matte Black, Size: For 1999-2002 E46 Coupe Cabriolet Pre-LCI
I tried these because the reviewer's pictures look like these would work. I will assume the integrity of the reviewer and their word that the grills in the pictures are legitimately this brand grills. Which means something terrible happened to the manufactures molds from the time the reviewer got theirs to the time I received mine. I ordered the correct ones for my pre-facelift model and the quality looked promising however the top edge was inset about a 1/4 inch from the OEM one and they wiggled around to the point that there was NO CHANCE of them staying in on the way out of my garage. Don't waste your time and money. Just spend the extra $50 to get the ones from bimmerworld.

Needs to be Re-designed
I will update this rating depending on the outcome of my customer service/support experience. At this time, I cannot recommend this product. Although it’s marketed for ATV use, it does not withstand the realities that come with ATV riding. The snaps on the straps securing the front of the shade come undone with nearly every bump, making the shade unstable and frustrating to use. On our second trip out with it after about 3 hours of riding, the shade collapsed on me entirely. Initially, I thought the rear hooks had come loose, but to my surprise, the roof frame itself had snapped in half on both sides. I’m still unsure how this even happens. The metal completely snapped right where the roof poles bend in a U. Very odd. It forced us to remove the shade completely and carry it on the back of the quad for the rest of the ride since it was not functional anymore. Given this is only the second time we had even used it I would not recommend anyone purchase this product which is so unfortunate as living in AZ I had very high hopes for this product, as the concept is excellent, but it needs significant reinforcement to handle the rough terrain and constant movement involved in off-road riding and at this time I requesting a full refund and until this company revisits the design to make it sturdier and more reliable I will not consider purchasing again.

It’s much more rigid than you might think.
The brackets did not fit the range of diameters that it said it would. Is pretty doofus when you lay it down backwards. It is however, more rigid than you might think. It works for me. I like it. Of course I can change things. I like the exterior fabric and I like the vinyl undercoating. I suspect it’s going to be waterproof as well. Now that I know, I’m not going to lay it down. I’m going to order a second one for my wifes quad, which is even narrower than the minimum they call out. 39.4”.
