We had a very mild winter. Some of my elephant ears did not die back all the way. Look at the size of this xanthosoma, and it is only May.

Wow! Those leaves are huge! At first I thought those were the leaves from Colocasia esculenta. I had no idea Xanthosoma leaves were so large.

My colocasias do not get nearly as large. My xanthosoma sagit. got over seven feet last year. Cant wait to see what will happen this year.
