The Colocasia esculenta 'Royal Hawaiian Black Coral', also known as Taro or Elephant Ear, stands as a majestic emblem of tropical beauty. With its deep black-purple leaves that shimmer with a satin-like finish, this plant promises to be a stunning focal point in any garden setting.

How to Grow

The 'Royal Hawaiian Black Coral' thrives in partial to full sunlight. It's suited for USDA zones 8-11 and loves consistently moist, well-draining soil. Plant its bulbs 4 inches deep, allowing ample space between each for its large leaves to spread.

Care Tips

This variety of Elephant Ear demands regular watering to maintain its lush appearance. While it relishes moisture, avoid letting it sit in stagnant water to deter root rot. In hotter climates, a shaded afternoon spot will help prevent leaf scorching.

Uses

The dramatic leaves of the 'Royal Hawaiian Black Coral' are not just ornamental delights but are also popular in several culinary dishes, especially in Asian cuisines. Its aesthetic appeal makes it a prime choice for both container gardening and aquatic landscapes.

Planting Tips

When planting this Taro, ensure the pointed end of the bulb faces upwards. For a bold visual impact, consider planting in clusters. If in containers, choose a sizeable pot to accommodate its growth and ensure proper drainage.

Maintenance

During its growing season, feed it with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks. As winter sets in, reduce the frequency of watering. In colder zones, consider bringing containers indoors to shield from frost.

Pests and Diseases

While generally hardy, watch for spider mites and aphids. A gentle spray of insecticidal soap can keep these at bay. Proper soil drainage and avoiding waterlogged conditions are paramount to prevent diseases like fungal and bacterial rots.

Good OEM replacement for Honda Pilot
Size: 7.5" x 8.7" x 1.4"
Simple cabin filter for my wife’s Honda Pilot. It fits well in the cabin air filter drawer. This is of similar quality to the original Honda one; just cheaper. I’ve bought this for my Subaru and have been happy with it as well.

Works great!
Size: 7.5" x 8.7" x 1.4"
This is a great filter for allergies and a huge help during allergy season. It traps fine dust and pollen much better than the standard paper filters you get from the dealership, resulting in noticeably cleaner air inside the cabin. The construction feels very solid, and it fit perfectly right into the housing without any issues. If you are looking for true HEPA filtration in your vehicle, this is definitely worth the upgrade!

Saved over $60 and felt like a DIY hero!
Size: 7.5" x 8.7" x 1.4"
I bought the BOSCH 6092C HEPA Cabin Air Filter after a tire/service center quoted $76 to do the same job I did in no time. Instead, I watched a quick YouTube video, grabbed a screwdriver, and had it swapped out in under 5 minutes—no sweat, no special tools. The filter itself is high quality, fits perfectly, and noticeably improved the air quality in my car. No weird smells, and the airflow feels cleaner and stronger. Honestly, it’s one of the easiest upgrades I’ve ever done. If you’re even slightly handy (or just tired of paying for basic service), this is a no-brainer. Great product, easy install, and a satisfying win for anyone who likes saving money and doing things themselves.

Great aftermarket filter
Size: 7.5" x 8.7" x 1.4"
Performance will be TBD but after a test air does smell a bit cleaner. It Fits a 2018 Subaru Impreza just like the OEM does. Material is significantly better as well. The only thing that will cause confusion is the arrow designation many are used to. The OEM will state which way the filter is to be oriented (up), and this aftermarket version designates which way airflow goes which is usually in the direction of the blower or engine bay (down). Keep that in mind. Otherwise, it’s so easy and such a good peace of mind maintenance item everyone should do and NEVER pay the dealer.

Works ok, but not perfect. Manage expectations.
Size: 7.5" x 8.7" x 1.4"
My goal was to reduce or eliminate bad particulate odors coming in from outside while driving, as drive through areas with high particulate pollution. Sure, recirc mode exists, but then cars fill up with CO2 quickly, and high concentrations of CO2 makes you drowsy and have slow reaction times, etc. So I looked into better cabin air filters. My Subaru has an easy-to-access cabin air filter. I learned how to properly change it via online videos, because the dealership wants over $50 just to change the filter, and it only takes a few minutes! The OEM filter I took out is not that good, and only meant for larger particulates, to protect the HVAC system. It reminded me of the cheaper (but not cheapest) furnace air handler filters. Placing this new filter in and testing it, it does block more airflow, which is to be expected from a finer filter. My car's blower has 7 running speeds (plus off), and I needed to turn it up one notch higher to get about the same airflow, versus the previous filter. The filter seems to work, somewhat. If behind a diesel truck, I still smell it. Same with cigarette smoke from a car in front. It doesn't block vape vapors at all, it seems. However, maybe I was expecting too much. The infographic for this filter clearly shows the size of particulate it can handle, which I appreciate very much. Diesel exhaust is a very fine particulate, smaller than this filter can filter. I also wonder if outside air is getting around the filter in the filter housing, since it just slides in, like a furnace air handler filter. It has a good fit though, in my car at least. What I need is an even finer filter, but that would likely block a lot more airflow. There are various manufacturers of high-end cabin air filters, but I don't know if they match or exceed the quality of this one.
