    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Alocasia ‘Tiny Dancer’ is a tropical, clumping perennial houseplant featuring clusters of up reaching, bright green leaves. 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!
