Elephant Ear type flower


Question
Hello, thank you for your time!  I have a corner area that doesn't get much sun--mostly late afternoon sun, if at all.  It also stays moist.  I have planted black elephant ears there for several years and they do real well.  But, I would love to change it up this year with something different.  Do you have any suggestions please?  I have also had rhododendrons (sp?) and an astilbe there.  They lasted a couple years.  Would love to have something tall!  Thanks again.

Answer
Hi Carol,
Thanx for your question.  The Colocasia world (elephant ears) is packed with all kinds of interesting plants.  I am recommending to you Plant Delights in North Carolina.  I have bought plants from them and find them to be high quality plants.  Here is a link to a number of interesting varieties of elephant ears.  I hope this helps.
Tom
