The adorable, cupped, pointed leaves are carried on curling stems, making the foliage look like it is dancing the night away! This is a petite variety, maxing out around 20” tall. Elephant Ear plants are great for adding color and texture in landscapes and containers. They especially work well as houseplants, with a dwarf stature perfect for adding interest to small interiors. Keep evenly moist and fertilize monthly during the growing season. Protect from frost!
