So strange, not knowing much about this variety except having seen one, I expected a huge elephant ear bulb to align with expectation of an huge plant one day. I received a sprig planted in a little 2x2 container that they use for flats. I’ll plant it and baby it, but not at all what I expected. I wondered if it was a dwarf variety but the tag doesn’t say so.
