Planting and growing information
Plant Elephant Ear bulbs after all danger of frost has passed when soil temperatures reach at least 65°F. Position the bulbs 2-3 inches deep with the pointed end facing upward in rich, moist soil. Space bulbs 3-4 feet apart to accommodate their impressive spread. These tropical beauties thrive in USDA zones 8-11 as perennials but can be grown as dramatic annuals in cooler regions. For best results, provide consistent moisture and fertilize regularly throughout the growing season.
