Description
Thick, glossy, upright foliage gives a tropical look in the garden or in containers. Easy to grow in partial sun to partial shade in well drained soil. Commonly known as upright elephant ear, Alocasia macrorrhiza's glossy, bright green leaves add an exotic look to beds, borders and pots. The big paddle-shaped leaves are held upright to shed water and make room for companion plants below. These heat-loving tropical plants can grow 5 feet tall in one summer.
