Amazon Elephant’s Ears are loved by many for their deep glossy green leaves with striking white or light green veins. The serrated heart-shaped leaves are sure to turn some heads placed on a mantelpiece or on a bedside table.

Also known as: Elephant ear, African Mask

Origin: Southeast Asia

Plant Care

Light: Indirect sun, maybe a shady corner in a bright room.

Watering: Keep the soil moist but not soaked. Try watering in the morning so that they are dry by nighttime.

Soil: Fast draining potting soil will do the trick.

Re-Potting: These plants develop better when slightly under-potted. A fast-growing plant may need to be re-potted yearly.

Fertiliser: Start feeding biweekly with a diluted fertiliser in spring and stop at the end of August.

Humidity: Elephant ears will die or go dormant if exposed to cold temperatures. Keep in a warm and humid room to create a similar environment to its natural Southeast Asian climate.

Propagation: Best to propagate during spring by dividing the plant at its root.

Air purifying: Yes
