Planting Instructions

For terrestrial gardens in the landscape, dig holes twice as large as the bulbs and plant in loam soil with a little composted material, with points up and roots facing down, with an inch of soil above the bulb. Plant in filtered sunlight to part shade. Water regularly, especially during long, hot dry spells. If adding to your pond, allow roots in water with no water over the pot, in part sun to part shade. In terrestrial gardens in northern climates, lift bulbs after first light frost, remove soil and all foliage, allow to dry in a well ventilated area outdoors for a couple of weeks then store bulbs in a cool, dark, dry place throughout the winter months. Plant in the spring after all danger of frost has passed. Imperial Taro may also be overwintered indoors as a houseplant!

When you get your taro/elephant ear you should replant in its new large pot however acclimate this for 3-4 days out of direct sunlight on the north side of your home in a calm tray of water letting the pot uptake the moisture it needs until it acclimates some new roots and then move that new larger pot into the pond around the 4th day moving if in direct sunlight to prevent wilting after acclimation.

Alba packaging stinks
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Complete waste of money! I ended up tossing it out because it’s IMPOSSIBLE to use. You should be able to twist the top to lock/unlock and spray it. NOPE. The top just spins and doesn’t catch or you cannot twist it at all. It’s also virtually impossible to spray. I had to hold it against my torso and press with both thumbs to get it to spray. Meanwhile, it’s leaking, the bottle is getting slippery. And then the spray goes EVERYWHERE, it’s not a narrow spray but it’s as if you’re dusting crops. I tried to see if it needed a certain pressure point, two fingers, bloody hell it’s not a Magic Mouse you should be able to unlock and spray it with one hand. Anyway, Alba needs to do some QC on their packaging. The last pump lotion I got, the pump also did not work. It just spun and spun and could not be unlocked. I had to wash and reuse the pump from an old bottle.

Best sunscreen brand! Fair, sensitive-skinned and rely on this
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Alba Botanica is my favorite brand for sunscreen products and it checks all the boxes on my list: Excellent long lasting coverage, fine mist spray and easy coverage cream versions, great for my sensitive skin (no breakouts- I do NOT use it on my face though), the Hawaiian fragrance is pleasant, it’s reef safe (a big one for me as a snorkel/dive aficionado), and organic ingredients. The large size lasts 5 full days when on a boat all day in the Carribbean, and I only apply it twice (once in morning, and again midday.) I have fair skin, and I never burn. The spray version is, by nature of its aerosol capacity, a bit drying on the skin, but this is to be expected, and it creates a long lasting barrier. The cream version is a wonderful emollient, although not quite as long lasting. Best deal is only in the summer season at CostCo for a 2 pack... in my searches, Amazon has the best deal otherwise.
