Planting Instructions

For terrestrial gardens in the landscape, dig holes twice as large as the bulbs and plant in loam soil with a little composted material, with points up and roots facing down, with an inch of soil above the bulb. Plant in filtered sunlight to part shade. Water regularly, especially during long, hot dry spells. If adding to your pond, allow roots in water with no water over the pot, in part sun to part shade. In terrestrial gardens in northern climates, lift bulbs after first light frost, remove soil and all foliage, allow to dry in a well ventilated area outdoors for a couple of weeks then store bulbs in a cool, dark, dry place throughout the winter months. Plant in the spring after all danger of frost has passed. Imperial Taro may also be overwintered indoors as a houseplant!

When you get your taro/elephant ear you should replant in its new large pot however acclimate this for 3-4 days out of direct sunlight on the north side of your home in a calm tray of water letting the pot uptake the moisture it needs until it acclimates some new roots and then move that new larger pot into the pond around the 4th day moving if in direct sunlight to prevent wilting after acclimation.

Tacvasen men shorts
Color: Navy, Size: 40
This Tacvasen shorts are the best. I’ve been trying to find the perfect pair of shorts for me but had no luck. A lot of people talk about the poor quality of Amazon’s products, but that’s not the case this time. I recommend these Tacvasen shorts to any shopper, good quality, and comfortable.

Nice quality with great pockets
My husband loves these shorts. Particularly the pockets with button closure. You can easily fit a cell phone, money clip, or loose change. The material is soft and comfortable. I ordered them in this color and white.

Shorts
Color: Sky Blue, Size: 36
Love these shorts, I was very happy with the look, color, weight, and fabric quality. Great value. I wish they had a light pink color in the same style and fabric.
