Make a bold, tropical statement with our Giant Green Elephant Ear, a garden favorite known for its massive, heart-shaped leaves that resemble—you guessed it—elephant ears! These vibrant green leaves are broad, lush, and dramatic, adding both height and texture to any garden or patio container.
Standing behind a single mature leaf can hide a full-grown adult (we’ve tested it!). Whether in a planter by your front door or lining a walkway, this plant transforms your space into a lush paradise.
Low maintenance and incredibly easy to grow, Giant Elephant Ears thrive in both full sun and partial shade and love moist soil. Over time, they’ll grow taller and fuller, becoming an architectural centerpiece in your landscape.
Note: “Giant” refers to the leaf size. The bulb itself is standard size.
