  • If the danger of frost has passed, your night temps are over 50F and your soil temps are 60F it's time to plant your elephant ears!
    Pick a spot with few hours of sunlight and well draining, rich soil. Plant the corm about 2'' deep, water well after watering.
    Don't forget to fertilize every three weeks with high Nitrogen fertilizer to get the biggest leaves!
    Good Luck!
    Yuliya

    Seeing your Elephant Ears over the years has inspired me to find spaces to tuck them into my garden. I overwintered them this past season and 1/2 of them made it (also following your videos). The survivors will be enough to have in the garden spaces. I will have wonderful impact with no money spent!! Thank you for all you do to bring us these videos.

    Hi and thanks Yuliya 😊 Yes, water daily, unless it rains! I'm a total Elephant Ear Lover 💚 I plant mine in very large tall container pots. I have them right up against the house, and the sunlight mine get, is reflective light from the townhouse across from me. They love it there, and ofcourse, They Love Humidity.

    The first year I bought corms and they took over 4wks to get going. Last Fall I saved corms from my plants and started them up in mid January thinking they would take that long again. Well they started sprouting in 7 days 😂 I now have a jungle at my dining room patio door window that needs water everyday!! I can't wait to
    get this beast outside! 😂😂

    I haven’t planted mine yet but will work on that today. We have experienced uncharacteristically high winds this spring so I really appreciate the tip about burying the corms a bit deeper than I would have. I could hardly focus on the EEs due to your stunning azaleas in the background! Please consider doing an azalea/rhodo tour sometime - yours look amazing.

    I planted some in the ground for the first time. Previously, I had only had them in a large pot. I'm looking forward to seeing how they look right out in the ground next to our front porch. I didn't add manure because I didn't know to do so. But I did plant them deeply and fertilize them. I will follow your advice about the every day watering too. I'm probably going to get another 2 of them so they can look real lush and exotic in their area. 😊

    Great video. You inspired me to plant them in my garden! I always use them in my pots and plant flowers around them.
    How much do they multiply in the ground? They have gotten so expensive to buy here in Windsor, Ontario. $30 for one leaf!
    I bring mine in in the winter and keep them in the house and bring them back out to save them and they get larger and larger every year and I enjoy them all year round but I have never put them in the ground. Thank you for the ideas.

    I was hoping you'd do a video. 😊
    I grew some elephant ears last year I could see from my office window. I directly planted the corms in the soil and they came up nicely. However, I could have enjoyed them longer had I started them indoors a month or so earlier.
    I planned to do the same this year, but in a spot that gets more sun. A lot more sun. I guess I'll rethink that placement until the future when this area will have some shade from trees I plan to order from FastTrees.
    Btw, how is your hedge growing?

    Love your channel, I watch every single video. I think you might have your gain up too high during recording, I'm getting audio distortion on this and your last video.

Still such inspirational content and always very positive, thank you for continuing to make videos even when you're probably so busy! ☺️

    Do you have to spray these with deer repellent or do they generally leave them alone? I'm thinking maybe to plant them in the ground with some hosta (which I already struggle with deer browsing!)

    One of my kiddos gave me a Black Beauty elephant ear plant for mother's day. I'm in zone 8 b and the tag says part to full sun , so I planted it in my full sun bed. Now I'm worried it might be too much sun. If it shows signs of stress , would it be ok if I move it? I have no experience with this plant and I'm so afraid of something going wrong.
