Description
Make a bold statement with Diamond Head Elephant Ears, featuring large, dark purple to black leaves with a spectacular glossy finish. Reaching an impressive height of 48-60 inches, this striking Colocasia variety thrives in partial sun to shade, adding a dramatic tropical flair to any garden, patio, or container.
For best results, plant bulbs slightly deeper than their size, spacing them at least 2 feet apart. Water consistently throughout the season, and in colder climates, containers make it easy to lift and store bulbs for winter protection.

Dig a hole slightly deeper than the bulb itself. Place in hole, blunt side down. Space multiple bulbs at least 2 feet apart. Requires no fertilizer. Excellent plant for containers which can then be easily lifted in northern climates where they may not survive the winter if left unprotected.
