“Elephant ears” is the common name for a group of tropical perennial plants grown for their large, heart-shaped leaves. Most of these herbaceous species in the arum or aroid family (Araceae) that are offered as ornamentals belong to the genera Colocasia, Alocasia, and Xanthosoma, although there are others that have similar appearance and growth habits.

The first two genera are native to tropical southern Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Guinea, parts of Australia, or the Pacific Islands, while Xanthosoma is native to tropical America. Many of the species have long been grown for the edible starchy corms or tubers as an important staple food in tropical regions.

The leaves are edible, but they (and all parts of the plant) contain needle-like crystals of calcium oxalate which are a skin irritant, so they must be cooked first.

One of the most widely grown species is C.esculenta, called taro and many other common names. It has been cultivated in Asia and Polynesia for thousands of years, with over 200 cultivars selected for culinary or ornamental characteristics. This species naturalizes readily in wetlands in mild climates and is considered an invasive species along the Gulf Coast.
In cooler climates elephant ears are grown for their large leaves.
In the Midwestern garden these plants are grown for their flat sagittate (arrow- or heart-shaped) leaves that often have prominent veins. In their native habitat the smooth, waxy leaves will grow 3 feet long and 2 feet wide or more (depending on the species) but they tend to be much smaller when grown as a seasonal plant.
The leaves are held on the end of long petioles coming directly from the underground corm.
The leaves are held on the end of long, thick, succulent petioles coming directly from the underground corm. The petiole attaches near the center of the lower surface of the leaf (peltate) and the leaves are held perpendicular to the upright petiole with the leaves facing upward or outward.

The leaves of Alocasia and Xanthosoma are usually not peltate and are held more upright. These plants generally grow from corms (commonly called bulbs, although they are not true bulbs),

but some types also produce long, slender stolons (above ground runners), and others do not form corms. The lumpy corms with rough ridges have a brown skin and a white or pink interior. Some types of elephant ears also produce smaller tubers or “cormels” (also called “eddos”) which grow off the sides of the main corm.
Although elephant ears are grown primarily as foliage plants, they can bloom – but flowers are not common in the Midwest. The inflorescences are the typical aroid type with a white to yellow or light green spathe surrounding the spadix. They can be large, fragrant and attractive, but are normally hidden underneath the foliage. Fruits are globular green or yellow berries containing several seeds.
The flowers of Alocasia are a typical aroid type (L) with a white to green spathe surrounding a white or cream spadix (LC, C and RC), and may be followed by globular berries containing several seeds (R).
The standard emerald green C. esculenta, with a matte finish, used to be about the only type of elephant ear available to Midwestern gardeners, but over the past couple of decades breeding programs have produced a lot of new ornamental varieties. They vary in size from 8 inches to over 9 feet, but most are in the 3 to 5 foot range. Some of the many interesting cultivars available include (C. esculenta unless otherwise noted):

Reviews for "Scotch Magic Tape Refills: The Secret to Clean and Professional Presentations"
1. Emma - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Scotch magic tape refills. They claim to be easy to use and invisible when applied, but I found the tape to be quite tricky to handle and it was not as transparent as I expected. It regularly got stuck on the dispenser and tore easily, making it frustrating to use. I ended up using more tape than necessary because of these issues. I will definitely be looking for an alternative brand next time.
2. John - 1 star - I have never been so dissatisfied with a tape refill before. The Scotch magic tape refills are anything but magical. The tape kept tangling and getting stuck inside the dispenser, wasting a lot of my time and energy. Additionally, the adhesive was not strong enough to hold things together for more than a few hours, which is quite frustrating when you're trying to make something last. Save your money and look for a better option!
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Scotch magic tape refills, but they fell short of my expectations. The tape has a strong chemical odor, which is not pleasant to work with. Moreover, it does not adhere well to certain surfaces, especially on paper or cardboard. I found myself having to constantly reapply the tape, defeating the purpose of using it in the first place. I would not recommend these refills for any serious or important projects.
4. Michael - 2 stars - The Scotch magic tape refills were a huge letdown. The tape constantly got stuck to the edges of the dispenser, resulting in a lot of waste and frustration. It was also quite difficult to tear off the desired length of tape cleanly, often resulting in uneven or torn edges. Additionally, the tape did not stick well and would easily peel off after a short period of time. Overall, I was extremely dissatisfied and will not be purchasing these refills again.
