4.7 Store Rating

The Sangria elephant ear gets its name from its bright pink to dark red stems that develop as the plant matures. The stems are not the only showstopper though--the leaves sport a blue-green tint and purple veins, making this plant as striking as a cool Sangria drink. It grows in clumps and makes a great landscape or container plant.

• Height when mature: 4-6 feet
• Light: If planted in full sun, they typically grow more compact and brightly-colored. In shade, Elephant Ears often reach their largest size.
• Soil: Well-drained
• Water: Water every couple days.
• Zones: 6-10

Four potted plants in increasing sizes are labeled: Promo (2-4 tall), Classic (3-8 tall), Premium (8-15 tall), and Supreme (8-25 tall), showing plant and pot dimensions for each size.

Introducing Premium & Supreme plants

We're expanding our product lineup with plants that need more space than our classic 2/3-cup pot allows.

Premium Plants come in a 3/4-quart pot and Supreme Plants come in a 3/4-gallon pot.

New Premium & Supreme Plants will release each Friday.

Shop with confidence

Your plants are packed with the utmost care, but shipping can be stressful on the little guys.

We sell baby plants

Wellspring Gardens is the starter plant, AKA “baby plant” shop. We just get you started, so you get all the credit for raising your plants under your green thumb.

How tall are baby plants?

We aim to ship your plants when they’re 3-8” tall, though we often ship them taller than that.

What determines whether I get a 3-, 6-, or even 18-inch-tall plant?

The exact size of the plant we send you is variable on the time of year and how long we've been growing it out.
