Elephant ears are quite versatile in the landscape, adding dramatic texture and color to mixed beds and borders or container plantings. Give these plants plenty of water and afternoon shade; they can be grown in full shade, but foliage color is more intense with some sun. Elephant ears can be grown in up to 6-inches of standing water, making them an ideal emergent plant for water gardens or for planting in streambeds. These are frost-sensitive plants. ‘Mojito’ is winter hardy in zones 8-10 and frost sensitive. In colder areas, dig bulbs before the first frost; bulbs can be grown indoors in containers over the winter, or stored in a dormant state and replanted in spring. For winter storage, trim foliage and allow plants to cure for one to two days in a warm, dry location; store in a plastic bag or ice chest filled with moist peat moss, in a dark and cool (not freezing) place, such as a basement.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"EOP SCXW163417524 BCX0\" data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}'\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"High Country Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Bag of 1","offer_id":50617509151013,"sku":"HC017727","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/4451\/2037\/files\/colocasia-mojito.jpg?v=1761077289"},{"product_id":"cheiranthus-allionii-seeds","title":"Siberian Wallflower Seeds (Cheiranthus)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(10-18\" tall) The brilliant orange, nectar-rich\nblooms of Siberian Wallflower provide an important spring food source for\nbutterflies and bees.
