Unleash the exotic allure of the tropics in your garden with Heart of the Jungle® Elephant's Ear! This stunning plant features thin, spindly stems that allow its enormous, lush leaves to spread wide in an elegant arc, gracefully hanging above the center. Its unique growth habit makes it a fantastic choice for creating striking planting combinations—let the impressive leaves drape over lower-growing plants for a truly dramatic effect. While Heart of the Jungle® is stunning when planted alone, it’s versatile enough to stand out in any garden setting. An award-winning beauty, this tropical gem thrives as an annual in most zones, but in warmer climates (zones 8 through 11), it can act as a perennial, bringing lasting elegance year after year. Perfect for adding a touch of grandeur to any landscape, Heart of the Jungle® will have your garden feeling like a lush, tropical paradise.
