Maui Gold Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Maui Gold')
Maui Gold Elephant Ear is a bright tropical foliage plant valued for its chartreuse to golden yellow leaves, bold texture, and strong warm-season growth. Its large heart-shaped foliage brings a lighter, more colorful look to patios, poolside plantings, large containers, moist garden beds, and tropical-style landscapes. This selection is especially useful for adding contrast against dark foliage, deep green plantings, and brightly colored annuals. With warmth, rich soil, steady moisture, and sun to partial shade, Maui Gold Elephant Ear creates a lush, high-impact display in indoor and outdoor spaces.
Distinctive Features
Maui Gold Elephant Ear produces large chartreuse to golden yellow leaves that brighten the landscape and stand out from darker green or purple foliage plants. The foliage is typically broad, heart-shaped, and held on sturdy petioles, creating the bold texture associated with Colocasia. Color is often strongest in bright light when moisture is consistent, while afternoon shade can help protect the foliage in very hot locations. Flowers may appear occasionally as a spathe and spadix, but this plant is grown primarily for its colorful foliage, tropical texture, and warm-season presence.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Grows best in full sun to partial shade, with afternoon shade helpful in very hot climates to protect the bright foliage from scorch.
- Soil: Prefers fertile, humusy, organically rich soil that stays consistently moist while still supporting healthy root growth.
- Water: Performs best with regular moisture during active growth and should not be allowed to dry out completely in warm weather.
- USDA Zones: Hardy outdoors in USDA Zones 8 to 11 in protected conditions, while colder climates should treat it as a seasonal container plant or overwinter the tubers indoors.
- Mature Size: Typically reaches about 3 to 5 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide in favorable outdoor conditions, while container-grown plants may stay smaller.
- Habit: Forms an upright to spreading clump with broad golden foliage rising from the base on sturdy petioles.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Use as a bright foliage focal point in large containers, patios, poolside plantings, courtyard beds, tropical-style landscapes, or moist garden areas where its golden leaves can stand out.
- Container Planting: Grow in a large decorative pot where its chartreuse to gold foliage can provide strong color and be moved or protected before cold weather.
- Moist Garden: Plant in consistently moist beds, rain gardens, or pond-edge settings where its love of moisture can support strong growth.
- Tropical Garden: Pair with cannas, bananas, caladiums, gingers, coleus, and dark-leaved elephant ears to create a lush warm-season display.
- Mixed Border: Use in large mixed beds where its bright foliage can add contrast, texture, and tropical scale behind lower plants.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Water regularly during active growth to keep the soil consistently moist, especially in containers and hot summer weather.
- Mulching: Apply mulch around outdoor plants to conserve moisture, moderate soil temperature, and reduce weed competition.
- Fertilizing: Feed during the active growing season with a balanced fertilizer to support large foliage and vigorous growth.
- Wind Protection: Site in a sheltered location because strong wind can tear or damage the large ornamental leaves.
- Overwintering: Lift and store tubers or move containers indoors before frost in climates where the plant is not reliably hardy.
- Leaf Cleanup: Remove yellowing, torn, or frost-damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant looking clean and encourage fresh growth.
Why Choose Maui Gold Elephant Ear?
- Golden Foliage: Displays large chartreuse to golden yellow leaves that brighten containers, patios, and tropical-style garden beds.
- Bold Texture: Produces broad heart-shaped foliage that brings tropical scale and lush structure to warm-season plantings.
- Color Contrast: Pairs beautifully with dark elephant ears, purple foliage, deep green plants, and brightly colored annuals.
- Fast Warm-Season Growth: Responds quickly to heat, water, and fertility with strong foliage production during the growing season.
- Container Friendly: Works well in large patio pots where it can be featured outdoors in summer and protected before frost.
Maui Gold Elephant Ear is an excellent choice for gardeners who want bold tropical foliage with a bright, sunny color effect. Its golden leaves, large clumping habit, moisture-loving growth, and strong seasonal presence make it a standout plant for containers, patios, moist garden beds, and dramatic warm-season landscape designs.

Nice office chair!
Color: Dark
This is a nice office chair. All of the features work as stated. I would say the seat is slightly more firm than I prefer, but comfort is subjective. The pleather is soft and I like that the arm rests fold out of the way.

This Marsail Executive Office Chair Is Excellent For A Comfortable And Polished Desk Setup
Color: Dark
This Marsail executive office chair is excellent, and it brings together comfort, support and a clean professional look in a very practical way. The PU leather has a smooth, polished presence that suits a desk chair well without looking overly bulky. I appreciate that the design includes flip-up armrests, a height-adjustable seat, swivel movement and rolling mobility in one complete chair. The cushioning gives the chair a substantial seated feel, while the back design adds support without making the chair look heavy. It is an office chair that feels thoughtfully built for daily desk work, focused tasks and general seated comfort.
The chair arrived securely protected and in very good condition, with the main parts kept in place well through transit. The PU leather surfaces looked clean, smooth and free from distracting marks when unpacked. The base, wheels, armrests, backrest and hardware all appeared properly finished and ready for assembly. Nothing about the chair parts looked loose, flimsy or poorly handled when it arrived. The included components were organized.
The appearance of this chair is one of its strongest qualities because it has a dark, sleek and professional style. The chair fabric gives it a refined executive look, while the breathable mesh center keeps the backrest from appearing too solid or oversized. The flip-up armrests blend into the design nicely and add a cleaner profile when raised. The chair has a balanced shape, with a supportive back, plush seat and wide base that all work together visually. It looks modern without being too flashy, which makes it easy to place with different desks and work areas.
Functionality is where this chair becomes especially practical because it is easy to put together and simple to adjust. The height adjustment works well for getting the seat into a comfortable position at a desk. The swivel and rolling movement make it easy to shift, turn and reach without the chair feeling stiff. The reclining range and gentle rocking function add a useful option for leaning back during breaks. The flip-up armrests are especially convenient because they allow the chair to tuck under a desk more easily and create extra freedom of movement when needed.
The value is strong because this chair offers several useful features in one well-rounded design. The thicker cushioning, contoured support, PU leather surface, breathable backrest, reclining function and flip-up armrests all add to its usefulness. The sturdy base and stated 300-pound support rating also give it a more dependable feel than a basic desk chair. It provides the comfort expected from an executive chair while still offering space-saving details that make it practical. For the features, comfort and overall build, it delivers a very complete office seating option.
I highly recommend this Marsail executive office chair for anyone wanting a comfortable, polished and functional desk chair. It is excellent, easy to put together and built with enough adjustability to support different work habits. The combination of plush cushioning, ergonomic shaping, smooth movement and flip-up armrests makes it especially useful for a home office or workspace. I also like that it has a professional look without sacrificing everyday convenience. It is a strong choice for dependable seating that looks good, works well and offers solid comfort.

Comfortable for daily use!
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
After using this chair for work and general desk time, I think it does a nice job balancing comfort, adjustability, and overall build quality without feeling overly bulky or cheap. It feels designed for people who spend long stretches at a desk and want something supportive but still comfortable enough to relax in occasionally.
Assembly was straightforward. The instructions were clear, the hardware was organized well, and all the holes lined up properly during setup. I put it together by myself in around 20 minutes without needing extra tools. Once assembled, the chair immediately felt sturdy and stable rather than wobbly.
The overall quality is solid for this price range. The PU leather has a soft feel and doesn’t have the stiff plastic-like texture some office chairs use. The stitching looks clean, the armrests feel secure, and the rolling base moves smoothly across the floor. The chair also feels durable overall, especially around the frame and base where cheaper chairs sometimes feel weak or shaky after a few weeks of use.
It's very comfortable. The seat cushion is thick and supportive without feeling overly hard, and it stays comfortable during long work sessions. I’ve spent multiple hours at a time sitting in it without constantly adjusting positions or feeling pressure points. The mesh section in the backrest also helps airflow a bit, which keeps it from feeling too hot during extended use.
The lumbar support is great. The backrest naturally follows the curve of your spine and provides good lower back support while still feeling relaxed enough for casual sitting. I also liked the higher back design since it supports the upper back and shoulders well during longer periods at the desk.
The flip-up armrests ended up being more useful than I expected. They make it easy to slide the chair under the desk when not in use, and they also give more room if you like sitting cross-legged occasionally.
Solid chair overally. It has a good mix of comfort, support, ease of use, and practical features without feeling overpriced.

Comfortable, easy to assemble, but no adjustable armrests
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
The Marsail Executive Office Chair Ergonomic Desk Chair with Flip-up Armrests PU Leather was an easy to assemble chair; I was done within 15 minutes with the included tool. Extra screws were included which was nice as the main pack had broken open and I couldn't find one of the primary screws in the larger box (my guess is I probably tossed it on accident with the packaging material) but had the backup so all was well. The instructions were well written and clear.
I've now had the chair in my office for over a week. For context; I work from home and also am a PC gamer so I spend a sizeable portion of my time at my desk in the chair. I also live in the southeast US and its April when I am writing this review. With that said; its been in the 70s/80s regularly so feel like I can comment fairly on its performance in warmer temps; though I'll have to try and remember to comeback and update it for the summer season when AC is on full blast and humidity is higher (and the inevitable "swamp butt" sets in).
In the first week I've found the chair to be comfortable to sit in. It is wide enough and the arm rests to the side enough that I can sort of lean left and right without much trouble. I like this wider seat and armrests compared to chairs with more narrow span as I tend to shift and move a lot while sitting.
The PU leather material feels nice against my clothes and does "grip" the clothing which helps with my tendency to want to slide forward when sitting. At first I thought the "grip" would be annoying but I sort of like it after a week of using the chair.
The cushion material is comfortable for sitting and rebounds well after I've been sitting in it for a long period of time. The armrests feature the same sort of cushion and PU leather material which makes them comfortable to sit back and lean on.
For the price I think this is a solid office chair and a comfortable option. Longevity will only be tested over time so I'll see if I can remember to update this review over time. I am happy with the chair in my office.
A few downsides about the chair that I have:
- The wheels are very stiff and don't roll as smoothly as I'd like. They stay put when I am sitting at the desk but when I need to push away they take a bit of force.
- The arm rests can't be adjusted for height. They are one height and can only be moved out of the way completely. For someone like who likes to lean or shift sides this is less than ideal as I'd normally make adjustments to the armrests. With that said it is nice to be able to move them out of the way completely when I don't need them.
- Lumbar support could be better. I will be using additional support in the chair for my back.
