This just in: a 2022 elephant ear hybrid which will bedazzle your garden with its striking, multicolored veins. The Waikiki is a fun variety to watch grow because it’s constantly changing: The leaves start out plain old green but then develop their white veins and a purple dot. Then, the purple dot gradually expands into the white veins. Finally, the veining turns primarily purple. Please note that elephant ears’ attributes become more defined when they mature.

Height when mature: 3 to 4 feet
Light: Full to part sun
Soil: Rich well drained, keep moist, do not let dry out between waterings.
Zones: 7b-10b
