This is xanthosoma Albo Marginata, Mickey Mouse Ear
Some of my ears
Very, very nice, Cala. I love the Mickey Mouse ear. All of them look great.
Nice collection,five pictures posted in three minutes,you are fast!!!!
I had them all in the same folder Root, then I had to go out and take another of Purple Prince because the one I had was fuzzy!
Dang Girl, you are too organized. I have everything in just a few folders and have to go searching when I want something. I've got to get my act together. Maybe I can organize when winter gets here.
Like Roz, I love that Mickey Mouse Ear. They are all pretty, but I do like the unusual. I sure didn't realize that Nancy's Revenge would get so big. Mine is huge considering it was a baby last fall.
beautiful suz!
Darn! I don't have the Guinea Gold. Thanks for putting that on my wish list! LOL Are the sections between the veins raised? It almost looks quilted. Cool!
Not raised, just lighter. Funny thing, I have a botanist friend(a PHD kind of botanist)and he was looking at my plants(he loves brugs). He said "you need to do something for that ear, it's looking puny." When I told him that's how it's supposed to look and then showed him Lime Zinger, he was amazed. He had already told me my golden philodendron would benefit from some nitrogen, lol. He said he was giving up, I had too many weird plants! He said it just wasn't right for a leaf to be chartreuse and be healthy!
Love your elephant ears, I have started to collect them this year, I didn't realize they got so huge in so little time. I just bought a Frydek on ebay, it's beautiful. I have black magic, illustrius, and burgundy stem, love them all. And I have one I got in a trade called black velvet, but I'm not sure about that one, it's huge and beautiful, have you ever heard of this Elephant Ear? Cathy
Black Velvet is a small one. Could it be Black Magic-the dark leaved ear?
They're gorgeous!,I really love that New Guinea Gold!
