Colocasia ‘Thailand Giant’ Posted by Jake- Morristown, TN on June 21, 2025, 1:22 pm We’ve had a done of rain this year, but it hasn’t been too muggy. Finally getting some weather that make these grow even faster.

my ee's so far... Posted by Kevin seTN on June 21, 2025, 3:01 pm, in reply to "Colocasia ‘Thailand Giant’" Nice! I have bought more elephant ears this year than in times past. Now I'm looking for a pharoah's mask. It certainly has been rainy and now it's gonna get hot. It is summer though, lol. Here's a video I did the other day of mine. https://youtube.com/shorts/coWWN6nC_nQ Kevin seTN

Re: my ee's so far... Posted by Jake- Morristown,TN on June 21, 2025, 4:51 pm, in reply to "my ee's so far..." Those look great! I love Mojito but don’t have one this year. I do have Illustris which is one of my faves. Is Black Beauty related to it?

Re: my ee's so far... Posted by Jake- Morristown,TN on June 22, 2025, 4:57 pm, in reply to "Re: my ee's so far..." I am in a an apartment that had a backyard area and a little front area. The neighbor has also let me plant her front area. It’s been so wet, a lot of stuff has been slow to grow. I have a Black Magic elephant ear planted and I believe what looks like Black Diamond planted. It came from the same package and it said Black Magic was both bulbs. The one I think is Black Diamond has shiny leaves and not that purple color the Black Magic has. Also have a passionvine in a big container and it has started to take off. There are buds forming on it. Have it growing on a tomato cage. I also have some castor beans planted and caladiums going.
