Speaking of Elephant Ears

For several years I have left the Elephant Ear bulbs in the ground over the winter. This has been much easier and has worked well until this year. Our winter was colder and snowier then we have seen for a number of years. The first picture is the few Elephant Ears that recovered around the pond. Usually a bunch of plants is down to just a few. In my previous post, the Banana tree took a spot usually covered with large Elephant Ears. The exception is next to the shed door. Those plants are coming back nicely. Maybe they were more protected being up against the shed.
