Rare Variegated Elephant Ear, spectacular hybrid everyone is chasing. This tropical showstopper has become a must-have for collectors. Each leaf is a masterpiece, splashed with creamy white and deep green. No two are alike - some half white, others beautifully marbled like abstract art. Unlike most elephant ears, this one stays more compact, making it perfect for large decorative pots or shady patios. It keeps that bold, jungle vibe but with better manners in containers.
Give it bright, filtered light, warmth, and humidity. Keep the soil moist but never soggy. Avoid harsh direct sun - those white patches can burn easily. Here is a tip: if you notice a solid green shoot, trim it off. That is because its variegation is a chimera and green shoots can take over. Feed lightly during the growing season. The white areas do not photosynthesize, so the green parts do all the work. A small boost with Sunshine Robusta or Green Magic controlled-release fertilizer keeps growth balanced and healthy. This plant has it all - rarity, beauty, and that irresistible tropical charm. No surprise everyone wants to show it off.
