how to care for elephant ears?
Answers:
Keep the ground moist not soggy. Cut off any yellow or dying ears down about 4 inches from the ground. In the winter when they are pooping out from the cold cut them all off and cover the plant with lots of pinestraw. They will be back next year. They multiply so when the clump is too big for the spot or you just want a clump in another part of the yard you can dig it up in early spring and split it in half. Then you have 2 plants to put where you want. I throw a little Miracle Grow water on it 2 or 3 times in the summer. There are lots of different kinds. Tiny ones to really huge ones. I think they are beautiful plants. Lots of folks plant them under a place that drips water like a window air conditioner. They really grow then and you dont have to water.

Just water them and cut off leaves as they turn yellow.They will take over everything.
They love sun & daily lite watering. As said keep the yellowing leaves trimed. If it is in the ground they can become huge and spread. Potted they tend to dwarf and become root bound. It also depends where you live and where it is to the sun.

abundant water, warm temperatures...protection from the wind, not too much direct sunlight but in a bright area
Giant Q-Tips. No... really. COLOCASIA esclenta. Mammoth in size (no pun) fast growing to 6 ft tall 3 ft wide, from spring thru fall. some variates with foliage marked in various purple shades. all give a lush tropical effect. flowers resembling callas appear only in warnest climates. the tubers were once a staple food of Polynesians. Enriched soil with lots of organic matter. main dangers... windy locations, hot direct sunlight & snails & slugs. When clumps are to big, divide in early spring.
water them well and watch them grow
