‘Thailand Giant’ is much larger than C. gigantea, with each leaf growing up to 5′ long x 4′ wide!  Full grown plants typically reach 9′ tall. Produces pleasantly perfumed, white, lily-like flowers. Make a jungle on your patio! Elephant ear can also be used in water gardens submerged up to 2′ deep.

Bring containers in and remove bulbs from soil to store in a cool, dark place during winter.
