Elephant ear arrived distressed My elephant ears were shipped and look shocked. Repotted it in a larger pot and put it in a warm room with grow lights. Is there anything I can do? Will the leaves fall off but the plant be okay? TIA

Hi itās me again. Plant update and more questionsā¦ #Taro Posted a couple of weeks ago. Cut off the leaves that were suffering. In some ways the plant looks like itās adjusting, but in other ways not so much. Two things im noticing: curled leaves and brown spots on other leaves. Any advice from you nice people would be appreciated.

How can I make sure this baby has the best chance of growing? I got her in the mail just yesterday so she's been in the dark for a few days. Bottom watered as soon as I unpacked it and have kept it away from being directly near the window.

Spathe forming? #Taro Was wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to fully bloom? Does anyone have a blooming photo they can share? This is a sumo elephant ear I believe.

Leaves yellowing This happens every year with this plant. I bring it inside after the summer where it does great outside and has a tremendous growth season. Then, over the first two months of fall / winter the leaves slowly yellow and die and all that growth is gone. My only hope has been that the plant can make it through the winter inside so that I can start the process all over again in the spring. Any tips on how to keep this plant happy inside? #Taro

My Cleopatra Taro has been dropping leaves one by one , this winter and I donāt know what I have done wrong. I believe I have it in all the proper elements to grow properly. Could this be from overwatering?
