October 12, 2019 Herbaceous Plants Plants for Shaded Locations 0

After a brief hiatus, we are back with another installment. This week I am highlighting a group of plants that are commonly called Elephant Ear Plants. These plants belong to the genus Alocasia. They are native to Asia, and they instantly give a shaded area that tropical look due to their very large leaves. Richard Lyons Nursery has the plants shown below plus some very large varieties not pictured.
