Overwintering Colocasia esculenta - Winter Care for Elephant Ears!
Today's video is about overwintering and winter care for Colocasia esculenta, the big leaved Elephant Ears plants (known as Taro or Eddoes in Asia) that I use for that jungle effect alongside cannas, bannas, grasses and tree ferns in my UK tropical style garden. I go through the winter care required for other varieties including the hardy 'Pink China', the more tender black and colourful varieties and why I think it's easy to dry store Colocasia esculenta. I've overwintered them before as a houseplant but in warmer summers they definitely get big so dry storing them seems to be a reliable method of keeping these plants for next summer without taking up loads of room. As always, if you want to know any more then just leave a comment and I'll get back to you, thanks.
