No bugs or stickiness, Holly, just appears to be water running down the outside undulations of the leaves. Then droplets collect in the creases and eventually drop to the floor, or down the wall as you can see in the pic.

Thank you for the new term, coleup. Your teachengineering link got me thinking to do a primitive search for just 'weeping elephant ear' and learned the term Guttation which further led to this link:

Among the scientific explanations, another cause the writer also mentions is the soil is wetter than the roots, which may well be the case here, although I have been watering sparingly. We heat with wood to conserve electricity and humidity is very low. Thoughts anyone?
