CALADIUM ESCULENTUM

Similar to “Black Magic”, Elephant Ears produce an abundance of green leaves; they are known to make a great showy plant. This plant's water needs fall between average and high; the soil drainage can be moist but well drained or poorly drained. The ideal type of soil to use for planting should be clay, loamy, or sandy; the soil's pH levels should be between acidic and neutral. Planting should take place between April and May. You can expect the leaves to be formed between the months of June and August.

  • Lush tropical plants that produce enormous leaves.
  • Great for Mixed Borders.
  • Not winter hardy – Dig in the fall and store in a frost-free area.
  • Deer Resistant.
