elephant ear plant with red leaves Colocasia 'Fontanesii' Black Stem Elephant Ear BulbColocasia 'Fontanesii' Black Stem Elephant Ear is a dazzling tropical beauty that grows to an impressive size of 3 to 6 feet tall. Aptly named, its huge, heart shaped, glossy leaves are held on elegant purple black stems that give this elephant ear a rich, and somewhat mysterious, distinctive look. The plant rarely flowers, but may produce cream to tan spathes, which are usually hidden by the foliage and not considered particularly ornamental. Black

Colocasia 'Fontanesii' Black Stem Elephant Ear is a dazzling tropical beauty that grows to an impressive size of 3 to 6 feet tall. Aptly named, its huge, heart-shaped, glossy leaves are held on elegant purple-black stems that give this elephant ear a rich, and somewhat mysterious, distinctive look. The plant rarely flowers, but may produce cream to tan spathes, which are usually hidden by the foliage and not considered particularly ornamental.

Black Stem, or Colocasia esculenta 'Fontanesii', also known as elephant ear or taro, is a tuberous, frost-tender perennial (Zones 8-11). With its upright growth habit, it is adaptable to a large container. This striking plant is also well-suited to pond margins and rain gardens. Whether used as a solitary specimen or in mass plantings with flowering companions, its bold foliage adds a tropical touch to any landscape.

Black Stem elephant ear is low maintenance and hassle-free once established but should always remain moist. It thrives in sunny to partially shady spots with fertile, rich, and consistently moist soil. Afternoon shade can be beneficial in hot summer climates. Its resistance to deer adds to its versatility and appeal.

For optimal growth, plant Black Stem elephant ear's 7- to 9-inch bulb (rhizome) in mid-spring, spacing them 2½ feet apart and 2 to 3 inches deep, ensuring the soil and air temperatures are consistently 60°F or warmer. In cooler regions, dig up the bulbs in fall and store them in a cool, dry place with temperatures about 45° to 50°F.

Bed Sheets
Color: Bright White Striped, Size: Queen
I’m really happy with these bed sheets. They feel soft and comfortable against the skin, and the crisp white color gives the bed a clean, fresh look. The fabric is lightweight but still feels durable and well made. They fit the mattress nicely and stay in place throughout the night. After washing, they came out looking great with no noticeable shrinking or loss of softness.

Great sheet set
Color: Blush Pink, Size: Full
Super soft right out of the package. Thin material but should be perfect for cool nights. Blush pink is the perfect shade of pink. Love this set. Highly recommended especially at this price point.

Perfect Lightweight Sheets for Sensitive Hot sleepers
Color: Cream, Size: Queen
These sheets are soft, thin, and absolutely perfect for me. I have advanced CRPS and erythromelalgia, so I deal with severe nerve burning and heat sensitivity and cannot tolerate being overheated at all. I keep our AC between 56–64 degrees constantly, and since our studio is small, it usually stays around 61–63. These sheets have been a lifesaver for sleep. They are lightweight, breathable, and don’t trap heat, which helps me avoid extreme flare-ups and the intense burning pain I deal with. I'm bedridden so I need to be comfortable. They feel comfortable against my skin and don’t worsen my symptoms when I’m already in a lot of pain and look nice, wash nicely. For the price, they are also a great value. I’m genuinely grateful to have found something that helps me rest more comfortably. Will be buying more for us and gifts.
