Is elephant ear a perennial and how do I care for this plant?

Posted on July 11, 2017

Elephant ear is a nonhardy plant in cold winter areas, so it needs to be dug out and stored each winter. It does well in sun or partial shade and requires a rich, evenly moist soil. It grows quickly each summer and provides an outstanding tropical look to the garden.
