Giant Colocasia Plant Bulbs: A Majestic Addition to Your Garden:

Elevate your gardening experience with our Giant Colocasia Elephant Ear Plant Bulbs. These magnificent plants, renowned for their colossal size and stunning foliage, are the perfect addition to any garden seeking a touch of the tropics. Homegrown in San Diego, CA.

Product Description:

Our Giant Colocasia bulbs are meticulously prepared and primed, ensuring they are ready to sprout as soon as you plant them. The bulbs come in a range of sizes, from the compact golf ball to the more substantial softball size. Regardless of the initial size, each bulb is destined to grow into the same magnificent plant.

The Giant Colocasia is truly a spectacle of nature. When it reaches its peak, it stands as one of the largest in the plant kingdom, growing up to an impressive 10 feet in height. The leaves, a striking light green/gray hue, can grow up to 5 feet long and 4 feet wide. These leaves increase in size each year, adding a dynamic, ever-evolving element to your garden.

Cultivation is flexible and rewarding. For optimal growth and the biggest, most luscious leaves, we recommend planting your Colocasia in a location that receives full sun and regular, heavy watering. However, it also thrives in partial sun. Expect to see signs of growth within 6 to 8 weeks after planting.

Key Features:

Ready to Sprout: Bulbs come primed for planting, ensuring a hassle-free start to your Colocasia journey.

Impressive Growth: Capable of reaching up to 10 feet in height with leaves that can grow 5 feet long and 4 feet wide.

Winter Versatility: Live plants can be brought indoors during winter, while bulbs can be stored and replanted in spring.

Yearly Growth: The leaves of the Colocasia expand in size each year, adding grandeur to your garden season after season.

Specifications:

  • Zone: Ideal for zones 8-10
    • Zones below 8: The plants need to come indoors (see Zoning Notes section below)
  • Light: Thrives in full sun to part shade
  • Indoor Culture: Adapts well as a container plant for indoor settings
  • Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained soil. Maintain moisture without over-saturating

Embrace the grandeur and tropical beauty of the Giant Colocasia in your garden. With its easy-to-grow nature and awe-inspiring size, it's sure to be a conversation starter and a centerpiece in any garden setting.

Zoning Notes:

Zones 8 and Warmer: The plants can stay outside but will need a blanket of leaves and grass

  • Let the frost desiccate the elephant’s ear’s stems naturally. Cutting leads to rot
  • Mow over fallen tree leaves and lawn grass to chop them up
  • Wrap chicken wire around the plant, and reinforce it with rebar posts stuck into the ground. The wire should be 16 inches from the central stems and tall enough to hold a 6-inch depth of leaves around the base of the plant
  • Fill the cage with the prepared leaf-and-grass mixture, and uncover the plants after the last spring frost

Zones Below 8: The plants need to come indoors.

  • Cut stems to 6 inches tall after the first frost
  • Place the tubers in a bulb crate, plastic pot, or grocery bag, and lightly cover the tubers with a mix of peat and soil
  • Dampen the mixture with water, and set the container in a cool, dark place to make sure the plant stays dormant. Keep the tubers moist but not wet; wet roots will rot

Good quality, but a few issues with the hidden mounts and levelness.
Size: 35x7 2Pcs, Color: Black, Size: 35x7 2Pcs, Color: Black
These are quite nice and also sturdy. Only complaint I have is that I bought a couple of these, and on one of them, only one of them, it was difficult to get the hidden mounts to go into the holes. I think it was probably a manufacturing defect thing. Also, on that particular one, it wasnt as level as the other. Not a show stopper, but if you need a perfectly level type of mounting situation, I would be careful here.

Nice looking. Not very sturdy. Easy to install.
Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White, Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White
Update: The shelf slopes at about a 45° angle when you put anything more than about a pound on the outside edge of it. Perfectly fine up against the wall. Just seems like the braces inside aren't long enough to really give the stability needed. Bracket is nice and tight against the wall. Had to add braces underneath to hold a small plant, a photo and a small container. Wa sloping more and more each week The shelves look great and we're pretty easy to install. They have a single bracket that is very easy to mount to the wall and get nice and level.. The downside is that the bracket isn't long enough to go between studs. This seems like a pretty simple oversight. I mean why wouldn't you make it long enough to go stud to stud? Secondly and maybe more fatally the bars that go inside the shelf to support them coming out from the wall are significantly shorter than the depth of the shelf. Unfortunately this means the shelf is only supported the first few inches coming out from the wall so there is the potential for a slight lean forward.. The anchors they send are trash. Cheap soft plastic that just tears and bends with a screwdriver. I would suggest spending $2 and grabbing your own anchors from Ace or home Depot. The shelves are essentially made of a high grade cardboard kind of wood. They are not going to support much weight or last for years and years however there incredibly affordable and look nice and easy to install. Long as your expectations are right you'll be happy.
