The White Lava is similar to the Nancyana elephant ear with its cream-colored markings, but the White Lava's markings are even more distinct and branch out over the sides of the leaf. This variety of Colocasia grows in tight clumps. If your plant doesn't look just like the picture, give it a little time to grow up. Elephant ears' attributes become even more defined when they mature.
