Giant Colocasia Plant Bulbs: A Majestic Addition to Your Garden:

Elevate your gardening experience with our Giant Colocasia Elephant Ear Plant Bulbs. These magnificent plants, renowned for their colossal size and stunning foliage, are the perfect addition to any garden seeking a touch of the tropics. Homegrown in San Diego, CA.

Product Description:

Our Giant Colocasia bulbs are meticulously prepared and primed, ensuring they are ready to sprout as soon as you plant them. The bulbs come in a range of sizes, from the compact golf ball to the more substantial softball size. Regardless of the initial size, each bulb is destined to grow into the same magnificent plant.

The Giant Colocasia is truly a spectacle of nature. When it reaches its peak, it stands as one of the largest in the plant kingdom, growing up to an impressive 10 feet in height. The leaves, a striking light green/gray hue, can grow up to 5 feet long and 4 feet wide. These leaves increase in size each year, adding a dynamic, ever-evolving element to your garden.

Cultivation is flexible and rewarding. For optimal growth and the biggest, most luscious leaves, we recommend planting your Colocasia in a location that receives full sun and regular, heavy watering. However, it also thrives in partial sun. Expect to see signs of growth within 6 to 8 weeks after planting.

Key Features:

Ready to Sprout: Bulbs come primed for planting, ensuring a hassle-free start to your Colocasia journey.

Impressive Growth: Capable of reaching up to 10 feet in height with leaves that can grow 5 feet long and 4 feet wide.

Winter Versatility: Live plants can be brought indoors during winter, while bulbs can be stored and replanted in spring.

Yearly Growth: The leaves of the Colocasia expand in size each year, adding grandeur to your garden season after season.

Specifications:

  • Zone: Ideal for zones 8-10
    • Zones below 8: The plants need to come indoors (see Zoning Notes section below)
  • Light: Thrives in full sun to part shade
  • Indoor Culture: Adapts well as a container plant for indoor settings
  • Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained soil. Maintain moisture without over-saturating

Embrace the grandeur and tropical beauty of the Giant Colocasia in your garden. With its easy-to-grow nature and awe-inspiring size, it's sure to be a conversation starter and a centerpiece in any garden setting.

Zoning Notes:

Zones 8 and Warmer: The plants can stay outside but will need a blanket of leaves and grass

  • Let the frost desiccate the elephant’s ear’s stems naturally. Cutting leads to rot
  • Mow over fallen tree leaves and lawn grass to chop them up
  • Wrap chicken wire around the plant, and reinforce it with rebar posts stuck into the ground. The wire should be 16 inches from the central stems and tall enough to hold a 6-inch depth of leaves around the base of the plant
  • Fill the cage with the prepared leaf-and-grass mixture, and uncover the plants after the last spring frost

Zones Below 8: The plants need to come indoors.

  • Cut stems to 6 inches tall after the first frost
  • Place the tubers in a bulb crate, plastic pot, or grocery bag, and lightly cover the tubers with a mix of peat and soil
  • Dampen the mixture with water, and set the container in a cool, dark place to make sure the plant stays dormant. Keep the tubers moist but not wet; wet roots will rot

Another good Benchmark Atlas
Format: Spiral-bound
We camp frequently and own all of the Benchmark Atlases. Although, this is different due to Canadian laws, we are excited to try it out! Very detailed with information, such as small campgrounds and identifying land ownership (Forest services or BLM)

Memories of the Camino
Format: Paperback
First off, I have to say that my husband and I know Angela, the author. We met her because she is a neighbor of my sister, living in Hawaii. We discovered that she planned to walk the Camino de Santiago de Compostela the same year we were (2016) ! On a visit to Hawaii, we met with Angela and did a little local hike together. She was so enthusiastic and had prepared well. We, too, had been reading up and watching videos, getting suggestions as to what to bring, how to deal with physical issues and weather, what to pack and what not to pack, etc. Still, for anyone doing the Camino - whether the WHOLE 500 miles or doing the required 100 km to get the certificate at the final destination: Santiago de Compostela, Spain - it is a very personal endeavor. Reading Angela Leslee's book gives you the personal story of her "camino," and it is captivating. The changes that take place in her life - the discoveries she makes, the people she meets, the failures she feels, the fears, the habits that get broken (such as food choices!) - all make for an adventure that is life-changing and an interesting read. For anyone considering this pilgrimage, because that's what it is, this book will inspire you. You don't need to be part of a "group." You don't need a lot of plans. You do need to be prepared to be changed. The memory for myself and my husband is that it is the best shared experience we have had together in our 50 years of marriage! Angela's book brought back so many wonderful memories for us. I highly recommend this book.

Feeling Inspired!
Format: Paperback
Reading "The Way of Love" has inspired and encouraged me as I plan for my first (solo) Camino. I thank Angela Leslee for being unafraid to bare all the emotions in her book: the joys, victories, setbacks, disappointments, and pain. It's evident that "The Way of Love" was a labor of love as page after page recounts the 500 miles she walked! I told the author in an email that, in September, when I walk my Camino, I'll be sure to be up and out on the trail "...before sunrise when the yellow street lights cast their magical glow." Can't wait to experience that! "The Way of Love" -- easy to read and enjoy.

the good, the bad, the funny, the reality
Format: Kindle
A great memoir of an “older” woman walking the Camino de Santiago alone. Alone but with many friendships along the way.
