Alba Variegated Xanthosoma monstrosum Elephant Ears! Xanthosoma Atrovirens Albo Marginata / Variegata - Zone 7b - Cold Hardy! This one needs no introduction to those who are avid fans of variegated plants. These elephant ears have a uniformed variegation similar to the design of Mickey mouse (from a distance) and so many have called this plant "Mickey mouse" elephant ears. They are very unique with velvet looking leaves and the tips form a cup with some having a 'tail' that extends from the cup. When it rains or when watered on the leaves, the cup will hold water. The colors when first emerging from the center of the plant are yellow variegation that turns whiter as the leaf gets older. The green starts out lighter as well then turns very dark and when the leaf is finished, its contrast (even by itself) is striking! They like a bright shady position of rich moist soil to do their best and do grow larger than most think to heights of 4-5 ft with nice big variegated leaves. So easy to grow being a member of the Xanthosoma family, it is sure to be one of your favorites in your garden if you don't already have them. They are tissue cultured clones but are ready to grow for you and should begin producing babies in a few weeks after establishment. Get them now at a good price before they are gone! the waiting list was long to obtain these plants.
Although It is rare, a pure white leaf can emerge from this plant as with most variegated forms...
