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

Here's to Stinkbird!
Format: Hardcover
I love a story where I learn something new. I think young readers will delight in following Baby Stinkbird as he discovers his superpower. While he has many amazing traits, like his poopy smell and falling into a river (both of which keep him safe from predators), he has one fabulous talent that no other baby birds have. So dive in and find out more about Stinkbird’s adventures.

so fun!
Format: Kindle
With a title like Stinkbird Has a Superpower, I obviously had to grab a copy and read it. To be honest, when I first saw it, I didn’t realize the stinkbird is a real bird – otherwise known as the hoatzin which lives in the Amazon rainforest. I thought it was more of a cartoon character name, but I was wrong and that new knowledge made the book all the more appealing to me. I’m firmly in the camp that believes a children’s book should be one that both adults and kids can enjoy, and Stinkbird Has a Superpower definitely fits the bill! I chuckled at the back and forth between the father bird and his baby – the little chick was seriously adorable in both appearance and interaction. I learned a lot of interesting facts, and I loved the bright colors and vivid illustrations. And I think my nephews will be delighted to learn more about the stinkbird on the pages of this fun book, too (because what little boy wouldn’t want to learn about a stinky creature? lol). The format of the conversation between the father and chick allows similar engagement on the part of the adult/child reader pairing, and I foresee copious giggles from my nephews on a couple of pages. Bottom Line: Colorful illustrations, intriguing science, a surprising superpower (that isn’t what you think it’s going to be) and of course a stinkbird – Stinkbird Has a Superpower by Jill Esbaum and Bob Shea has all the ingredients for a fun and educational picture book, and the result is delightful in every way! Children and adults alike will love this book, and they’ll learn a lot at the same time. A great book for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, and anyone who has littles in their lives to add to their library. (I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book)

Fun and filled with facts
Format: Hardcover
Stinkbird is a humorous, kid-centric tale featuring the Amazonian hoatzin bird. It's filled with interesting facts about this stinky bird. Esbaum's distinct, fun voice is inviting, and Shea's illustrations are lush and colorful. Backmatter is engaging and amusing, too! This will be a terrific addition to classrooms, libraries, and home bookshelves.
