Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Waikiki')

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear is a colorful tropical foliage plant valued for its glossy green leaves, bright white veining, and vivid pink central markings. Its high-contrast foliage brings a fresh, polished look to patios, poolside plantings, large containers, moist garden beds, and tropical-style landscapes. This compact clumping selection offers bold elephant ear texture in a more manageable size than many larger Colocasia varieties. With warmth, rich soil, steady moisture, and sun to partial shade, Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear creates a lush, colorful display through the growing season.

Distinctive Features

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear produces glossy green leaves accented by strong white veins and bright pink coloring through the center of the foliage. The leaf pattern gives the plant a distinctive tropical look that stands out against dark foliage, chartreuse plants, and bright seasonal flowers. It forms a compact clump, making it especially useful in containers and designed beds where bold foliage is desired without excessive spread. Flowers may appear occasionally as a spathe and spadix, but this plant is grown primarily for its dramatic foliage and warm-season color.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Grows best in full sun to partial shade, with afternoon shade helpful in very hot climates to protect the colorful foliage from stress.
  • Soil: Prefers fertile, humusy, organically rich soil that stays consistently moist while still supporting healthy root growth.
  • Water: Performs best with medium to wet soil and should not be allowed to dry out completely during active warm-season growth.
  • USDA Zones: Hardy outdoors in USDA Zones 7 to 11 in protected conditions, while colder climates should treat it as a seasonal container plant or overwinter the tubers indoors.
  • Mature Size: Typically reaches about 3 feet tall and 3 feet wide in favorable outdoor conditions, with container-grown plants varying by pot size and care.
  • Habit: Forms a compact upright to spreading clump with broad variegated leaves rising from the base on sturdy petioles.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a colorful foliage focal point in large containers, patios, poolside plantings, courtyard beds, tropical-style landscapes, or moist garden areas where its white and pink markings can stand out.
  • Container Planting: Grow in a decorative pot where its compact clumping habit and bright foliage can provide strong color and be moved or protected before cold weather.
  • Moist Garden: Plant in consistently moist beds, rain gardens, or pond-edge settings where its tolerance for wet soil can support strong growth.
  • Tropical Garden: Pair with dark elephant ears, cannas, bananas, caladiums, gingers, coleus, and bright annuals to create a layered warm-season display.
  • Mixed Border: Use in mixed beds where its glossy patterned foliage can add contrast, texture, and tropical color among lower plants.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water regularly during active growth to keep the soil consistently moist, especially in containers and hot summer weather.
  • Mulching: Apply mulch around outdoor plants to conserve moisture, moderate soil temperature, and reduce weed competition.
  • Fertilizing: Feed during the active growing season with a balanced fertilizer to support strong foliage production and steady growth.
  • Wind Protection: Site in a sheltered location because strong wind can tear or damage the large ornamental leaves.
  • Overwintering: Lift and store tubers or move containers indoors before frost in climates where the plant is not reliably hardy.
  • Leaf Cleanup: Remove yellowing, torn, or frost-damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant looking clean and encourage fresh growth.

Why Choose Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear?

  • Colorful Foliage: Displays glossy green leaves with bold white veins and bright pink centers for a distinctive tropical look.
  • Compact Clumping Habit: Offers bold elephant ear impact in a more manageable form for containers, patios, and designed plantings.
  • Moisture Tolerance: Performs well in medium to wet soils, making it useful near ponds, rain gardens, and water features.
  • Fast Warm-Season Growth: Responds quickly to heat, water, and fertility with strong foliage production during the growing season.
  • Container Friendly: Works well in patio pots where it can be featured outdoors in summer and protected before frost.

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear is an excellent choice for gardeners who want tropical foliage with bright color, compact growth, and strong seasonal impact. Its glossy green leaves, white veining, pink centers, clumping habit, and love of moisture make it a standout plant for containers, patios, moist garden beds, and colorful warm-season landscape designs.

Easily breakable coating/fur
Color: Pink, Size: MINI 1.75" - 4 Pack
I wanted to love this item but sadly my dog really messed up the coating/fur on these balls so easily, other than that great product but with her being a puppy I got these smaller ones for that reason and I’m absolutely scared of her destroying things and getting stomach issues, so it’s just not worth it to me.

Hyper Pet Tennis Balls for Dogs: Because Every Dog Deserves to Play Fetch Like a Pro
Color: Green, Size: Regular 2.5" - 12 Pack
If your dog had a bucket list, fetching tennis balls would probably be near the top. And if that’s the case, then the Hyper Pet Tennis Balls are their VIP ticket to Fetch World. These little balls of joy are the real deal, perfect for small breeds that are living their best life chasing after something that probably doesn’t need to be chased but is just so throwable. The 12-pack means you can never lose a ball again...unless, of course, it gets lost in a mysterious “dog dimension” where all the socks go. These 2.5-inch tennis balls are the right size for those dogs that aren’t quite large enough to play with the big leagues. Think of them as the perfectly sized appetizer for the full-on Fetch Feast. Plus, they’re made from non-toxic material, so your pup can gnaw on them all day without worrying about a tummy ache (unless they’re overzealous and gobble up the whole ball...don’t worry, I won’t judge). If your dog doesn’t love fetch yet, they will after these balls come into their life. They’re designed to be durable enough for constant chomping while still offering that classic “bounce, roll, and fetch” action that gets dogs going. Pros: • 12 balls = endless fetch sessions (until the dog gets tired, but let’s be honest, that’s probably never). • Perfect size for small breeds—no choking hazards, just good ol’ fun. • Non-toxic materials for guilt-free playtime. • They squeak. And we all know that squeak is like doggy kryptonite. • Durability means no more fetching balls that break after three tosses (we’ve all been there). Cons: • They might not hold up as well with very heavy chewers (but don’t worry, your dog won’t know the difference until they’ve already swallowed half of one). • They don’t come in tennis-ball-flavor. If they did, I think we’d all be out of a job. If you’re looking to upgrade your dog’s fetch game (or just keep them entertained while you catch up on your own Netflix binging), these Hyper Pet Tennis Balls are a solid choice. Plus, your dog will be too busy fetching to judge your questionable snack choices.

Prefect for smaller dogs to play
Color: Green, Size: MINI 1.75" - 12 Pack
The only balls my sato mix will fetch! They are a bit smaller than regular balls and are more comfortable in my dogs smaller mouth (she is about 20 lbs). Great bounce and durability, highly recommend!
