      Black Stemmed Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta ‘Black Stem’) is a bold, tropical plant prized for its dramatic foliage and striking dark stems. Its large, heart-shaped leaves—ranging from deep green to smoky, bluish tones—rise on tall, nearly black petioles, creating a stunning contrast in the garden. Perfect for adding an exotic, architectural element to beds, borders, and water garden edges, this plant thrives in warm weather and high humidity. It also grows beautifully in containers for patios and poolside décor, where its lush, oversized leaves make an immediate visual impact.

      Be mindful of your temperatures when ordering. This plant does not like to travel in extreme heat or cold.

      ***We recommend that you wait 7 to 10 days from the date of receipt before repotting your plants, to allow them to recover from the shock of shipping***

      • Color: Deep green to smoky bluish leaves with striking black stems.

      • Fragrance: None.

      • Wildlife & Pest Resistance: Generally deer resistant; may attract occasional leaf-eating insects in humid climates.

      • Planting Zone: Hardy in USDA zones 8–11 (grow as an annual or overwinter indoors in colder zones).

      • Planting Instructions (from a 3.5" pot into the ground):

        • Plant after danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed.

        • Select a site with rich, well-draining soil that retains moisture.

        • Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep.

        • Remove the plant from its pot, gently loosening roots if pot-bound.

        • Place in the hole with the crown at soil level, backfill, and firm soil gently.

        • Water thoroughly after planting and keep soil evenly moist throughout the growing season.

        • Mulch around the base to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

      Black Stemmed Elephant Ear plants bring a tropical, high-contrast flair to gardens and containers, making them a standout choice for lush, dramatic landscape designs.
