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.

Adorable, Fun, and Perfect for Toddlers’ Bath Time!
Style: happy MARINE
These are so fun and cute! The size is just right for little hands, and they’re great quality with a gentle feel. My daughter is a lot more willing to wash her body herself using these, which makes bath time so much easier. They’re a big hit in our house!

Cute characters
Style: happy MARINE
I've had these for awhile and the characters help with bath time for my son. They're cute and my son picks a different character he wants to get washed by with each bath. They're fairly soft, not as soft as baby loofahs. Clean easily like any other loofah.

Skin friendly for kids
Style: happy MARINE
It's of good quality but because of the design, if not dried properly can be a home to bacteria.
