Elephant Ear/Taro

Louisville, KY(Zone 6a)

Ok got a question...
what is the difference between EE and Taro...I thought they were the same. The lady at the garden shop said the taro could withstand being in water, but the EE would rot...I have one in the pond and she just shot up another leaf so I would assume that I have Taro???? How do you tell other than the buld at the base of the plant? Mine are the generic green.
