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.

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.

Didn't stand a chance.
Size: One Size, Color: Georgia Bulldogs
I didn't know what to expect from this dog toy. I really just wanted a football style toy that we could play with our puppy with, especially during the NFL and college season. We had the toy for one week. I don't know if the toy is poorly made or if my puppy is just a master at destroying everything he puts in his mouth. In any case the first day the rope was ripped from the ball. The next day all the stuffing was all over the living room. The third day he broke the squeaker. By the end of the week the toy was missing most of the rope and what was left was frayed and way shorter than when we first got it, the football itself was flatter than Tom Brady's from deflate gate and just looked like this sad little piece of cloth and resembled something that had been abused for years. I will say he did really enjoy playing fetch with it for the short time he had it. Don't think I'll be buying another. Can't stand to see another toy get abused like this one.

Lasted Less Than Two Days
Size: One Size, Color: Tennessee Volunteers
This is a terrible quality toy! In only two days the seams were busting open and stuffing was all over there house. This was purely a fetch and recover toy. There was not tugging, chewing, or pulling. I am so sad for my dog. He was loving this toy, but because of horrible material and quality it 48 hour tenure has landed it right in the trash. "Tough quality..." do not waste your money. I would give this zero stars if I could.
