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.

Best frother on the market
This company has the best frothers I have ever used, and I have gone through my fair share of frothers over the years trying to find a good one. I bought this frother as soon as I saw they had an upgraded model, although the older model I was using for the past few years was great too (I now use that frother to mix up my dog's supplements :) ).
I have found most frothers to be weak, cheaply made, and eat batteries like candy, even ones rated really well here on Amazon. This one however deserves the great reviews. It is well-made and powerful and the newly added 9 different speeds fixes the "problem" the old one had of being a little too powerful at times. The newly designed stand is definitely a major upgrade. The old one was kinda awkward and would wobble, sometimes falling over when trying to put the frother back in it, but this new one is much sturdier and looks nicer, too. The battery life is also excellent. I can rarely remember the last time I had to charge the frother—it lasts a while. And the new indicator makes it easy to know exactly when it needs a recharging now.
I haven't looked at another frother in years since switching to this brand. I can't recommend their frothers enough.

✨Happy with my purchase!
At the time of writing this review, I've had my frother for almost a month now, and I love it!
Out of the box, it had a good amount of charge already on it, but I did charged it fully before using. I use it just once a day for my morning coffee fix, and it says I still have 80% charge left. I love that feature. I have used the frothing whisk for coffee, which is fantastic, and the regular wisk for scrambled eggs. It works, but I prefer a hand manual whisk for eggs, because I have more control. Even on the lowest speed, it made the bowl spin WAY too much, and I almost had a mess. No problems like that using the frothing wand for my milk though.
The dough hook. I have no idea why a dough hook is part of the package... what would it be useful for, one cookie, one bread roll?? I will never used it.
The stand itself works for holding the unit, but the holders for the individual wands could be better. I already snapped the plastic on one of them, but not matter, since I'm not using the dough hook anyway. LOL!
All in all, I'm happy with my purchase! It's easy to use and clean. It's a quality built frother, the price is fair, I like the variable speed settings, and I love the fact that it shows how much charge is left. Future product improvements I would recommend: make it waterproof, and lose the useless dough hook.

Best Frother on the Market.
With the absolute highest speed and power for a frother, this is the best frother on the market, but this model, the MF06 has three features that are great improvements over previous models. 1. LED reading of the speed setting and battery life remaining. 2. One-button stop. This is huge! Other frothers require me to cycle through the speeds 'till I get to the "off" or zero speed. This means when my coffee is at the edge almost overflowing, I have to speed-up to shut-off! Not so with this frother. 3. A loop attachment that is perfect for mixing with minimal frothing.
Costumer service is excellent, highly responsive, and human! Their 2- year warranty is for real. This is my third frother with this company. The first one (an earlier model) burned out and they replaced it. Twice! They replaced the second one with an upgraded model (MF05). It worked much better, but this model, the MF06 is a slimmer design, better attachments, more features, and without a doubt, the best I the market! Highly recommend.

My third FoodVille frother in six years and this one is the best!
Apparently I have a long running relationship with milk frothers.
Looking back at my Amazon orders, this is my third FoodVille frother since 2020, and they have all been part of my daily coffee routine. I make two mochas every morning, so these things get used a lot.
This new MF06 model has been in daily use for about three weeks now, and it’s easily the best version I’ve owned.
The biggest improvement is the adjustable speed control. Earlier models were basically one speed and you either got foam or a small milk tornado. With this one you can start slow and then increase power depending on what you’re mixing. It actually gives you control instead of just maximum blast.
Things I like after using it every day:
• 9 speed settings make it much more versatile
• Strong motor that creates thick foam quickly
• Rechargeable battery with USB-C, so no dealing with AA batteries
• Battery indicator so you know when it needs charging
• Multiple whisk attachments for different uses
• Stand keeps everything organized on the counter
The foam is thick and creamy enough that my homemade mochas now look like something from a coffee shop instead of something made by a half-awake human at 6 AM.
I’ve also used it for mixing protein powder and hot chocolate, and the lower speeds help avoid splashing.
The stand does take up a little counter space, but I personally like having everything organized instead of digging around in a drawer for the attachments.
For around the $20 to $25 range, this has been a great little kitchen tool. After several years and multiple versions, this is the best FoodVille frother I’ve owned so far, and it gets used every single morning.
What gives me confidence recommending it is that this is my third FoodVille frother since 2020, and each version has improved on the last.
If you make coffee drinks at home, this is a great little tool to have.
