Large heart shaped to shield shaped leaves rise on tall stems, creating bold summer impact in garden beds, landscaped areas, patios and outdoor living spaces. These impressive foliage plants make excellent focal points without relying on flowers for color and interest. - Colocasia esculenta thrives in summer warmth and produces increasingly impressive foliage as plants become established. Giant Elephant Ears can reach several feet tall under favorable growing conditions, making them useful for adding height, lush greenery and a tropical appearance around patios, pools, walkways and landscape beds. - Large container growing makes it easy to add Elephant Ear foliage to patios, porches and other outdoor spaces. Choose a substantial container with adequate drainage and room for vigorous growth. Plants appreciate rich soil and consistent moisture during active growth, especially during hot summer weather when their large leaves require dependable water. - Plant dormant Elephant Ear bulbs or corms in spring after danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Choose a location with sun to partial shade and rich, moisture retentive soil. Position the corm correctly, cover with soil and water thoroughly, then maintain consistent moisture as new shoots emerge and plants begin active growth. - Cold hardiness varies by climate, and Giant Elephant Ear is commonly grown as a warm season plant in colder regions. Where plants are not winter hardy, gardeners can lift dormant corms after foliage dies back and protect them from freezing temperatures for winter storage. In sufficiently warm climates, established plants may return as perennials. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00V4VA29I | | ASIN | B00V4VA29I | | Best Sellers Rank | #25,307 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #232 in Flower Plants & Seeds | | Brand Name | wbut2023 | | Color | green | | Customer Reviews | 3.4 3.4 out of 5 stars (1,466) | | Date First Available | March 24, 2015 | | Expected Blooming Period | Spring | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Material Features | Organic | | Moisture Needs | High, Consistent Moisture | | Number of Items | 3 | | Number of Pieces | 3 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Air Purification | | Plant or Animal Product Type | Vegetable | | Product Care Instructions | Plant after frost danger has passed in rich soil.

They just have the wrong picture **Q: How tall will they get in this growing season? Assuming I will need to cut them back and store bulbs over winter.** A: Last summer my elephant ears reached between 7-8 feet with leaves about 30" × 60". I planted three about 5' apart in full sun. I live on the gulfcoast with lots of rain and sun alike. This year I have pulled at least 50 "babies" from my planting site. Water, sunlight and Osmocote. **Q: Why are you showing the wrong picture? This is not Colocasia esculenta.** A: Hey, I haven't even received the package from Amazon yet. As a customer, I have no idea what the right picture is. ## Frequently Bought Together - Giant Elephant Ear (3 Bulbs) Colocasia Esculenta - Beautiful Bulbs,tropical - Caladium Red Flash,(10 Bulbs) Thrives in Heat and Humidity, Elephant Ears - Elephant Ears (Colocasia Esculenta) 3 Bulbs by Greenhouse PCA | Bold Tropical Landscape Effect. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/41497235-giant-elephant-ear-3-bulbs-colocasia-esculenta-beautiful-bulbs-tropical](https://www.desertcart.us/products/41497235-giant-elephant-ear-3-bulbs-colocasia-esculenta-beautiful-bulbs-tropical) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
