Giant Elephant Ear
Description:
Giant Elephant Ear is a striking tropical plant known for its elongated, arrow-shaped leaves with deep green hues and prominent silver veins. Native to Southeast Asia, this plant boasts glossy, leathery foliage that can grow up to 60 cm long, creating a dramatic, elegant look. The undersides of the leaves are often purplish or grayish, adding to its exotic appeal. This plant is perfect for adding a bold and architectural touch to indoor spaces.
Plant Care:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may scorch the leaves.
- Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires well-draining, nutrient-rich soil with good aeration. A mix of peat, perlite, and organic matter works best.
- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity and benefits from regular misting or a nearby humidifier.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to encourage healthy growth.
