Unleash the exotic allure of the tropics in your garden with Heart of the Jungle® Elephant's Ear! This stunning plant features thin, spindly stems that allow its enormous, lush leaves to spread wide in an elegant arc, gracefully hanging above the center. Its unique growth habit makes it a fantastic choice for creating striking planting combinations—let the impressive leaves drape over lower-growing plants for a truly dramatic effect. While Heart of the Jungle® is stunning when planted alone, it’s versatile enough to stand out in any garden setting. An award-winning beauty, this tropical gem thrives as an annual in most zones, but in warmer climates (zones 8 through 11), it can act as a perennial, bringing lasting elegance year after year. Perfect for adding a touch of grandeur to any landscape, Heart of the Jungle® will have your garden feeling like a lush, tropical paradise.

  • 36-60 inches tall and 30-60 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zones 8-11, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
  • Plant in full sun to part sun (6+ to 4 hours daily)
  • Space plants 36-60 inches apart for best results
  • Maintains dark green, heart-shaped leaves with burgundy veins and stems from spring to first frost
  • Great for containers, combinations, planters, landscapes, focal points
  • Foliage interest, heat tolerant, deadheading not necessary, water plant

This highly sought-after container size for annuals provides immediate impact upon planting because they are grown in a larger container. They were created for gardeners who are looking to fill in their landscapes and not have to wait as long for them to catch up to other plants in the same area. They also work extremely well when planted alone in 10" - 12" containers or as Thrillers for combinations in 16" and larger planters! 

Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners® Water Soluble Fertilizer.

These are durable plants that will perform best with moist to wet soil, but can tolerate some drought stress. Drought stress will negatively affect the appearance of the plant. Colocasia form tubers and these tubers can be stored for replanting in the spring. To dig and store tubers follow these directions. First, allow frost to kill the top of the plant then cut back the stems and dig the tubers. Wash off any soil and then allow the tubers to dry. Wrap dry tubers in newspapers or pack them in peat moss. Label each tuber or group of tubers so you know what they are come spring. Store tubers in a dark, cool (35 to 45 F) place. Do not allow tubers to freeze.

According to the Humane Society of America, Colocasia plants can be toxic to pets. This is means that the plants are generally identified as having the capability for producing a toxic reaction. This plant is not edible and can be harmful to humans if ingested.

My new favorite summer sandal!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I am loving these shoes so far this summer! The color is so cute, perfect for a light summer palette. It's the perfect light purple that doesn't make me look pale or washed out. For reference, I have fair to light neutral skin tone. They are SO comfortable - a little too comfortable for a shoe, it's more comfortable than my ugg slippers! They do take a second to put on as you have to either force your ankle in without unstrapping the back - don't judge me - or undo them. Thankfully they have a strap to help get them on easily. I love these shoes. I am a medium width, but I think these have some wiggle room since both the straps are velcro and adjustable somewhat. They are easy to walk in, hold onto the foot, have been more balanced than some others I have had in this platform style, and are very cushioned to walk in. Slight arch support to me but I have somewhat high arches so if you are more flat footed or standard arch these will give you even better support. Really impressed with these. They are more casual but work with many different outfits from sundresses to jeans. For me, these were a great buy and I will be wearing them all summer.

If I could give a Ten Star review, I would. Hands down the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever owned. I wore them 16 days straight while touring Italy. Comfortable and goes with all of your outfits. They pack well in a suitcase too. Light weight.

Wonderful
Super comfy and easy on and off, yet stylish imo! I could walk miles in these as a 56 yo and have worn them for three years! I hope they never stop making them. The only tweek I would suggest is to cover the footbed with leather or suede not cloth so they would last longer!
