Is this a ground cover?
Ed said his Grandmother had planted a plant that comes up everywhere and this looks like it.

It's an Elephant Ear, Colocasia esculenta. It grows 6-8 feet tall. It's not invasive - it will grow a lot of pups, but it won't take over your yard, if that's what you're worried about.

Have 'Picasso's paintbrush - any interest?

The Cape Fuschia is nice, but I don't have room for it. I need small.

Who is Shirley?

Wow that is a beauty of a plant. I never knew elephant ears came in anything other than green till this year.Wish I had what you are looking for so we could trade something. I only have the green elephant ears.

Oh yeah I found out there were different colors because I inherited my cousins plants and in a hanging basket a little fellow started comming up that is green and black. I had to have it IDed here.And I gotta get it into a big pot also.

I might be interested in Picasso's Paintbrush - how many do you have?

I have some crotons. Not just the common houseplant variety, either. Harder to find hybrids. LMK if you're interested.

Jess,

You and I had a LARGE trade, last November.

I'm interested. Ley me know what you can send, and what you'd like in return - I have both types of EEs.

1 Croton Mother and Daughter. This was the best picture I could find of one online. It's at the bottom of the page.

These aren't cuttings. They're each in a 6 in pot between 6-12 in. tall. Due to lack of space to overwinter things, I'm having to cut back my tropical collection. I'm interested in both types of EE, if that's possible.
