Aloha Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Aloha') brings the drama of the tropics to your garden with bold, oversized leaves that instantly transform any space into a lush paradise. This stunning cultivar produces glossy green foliage that can reach 2 feet long, held on sturdy stems that create a dense, architectural clump. Whether you're looking to add tropical flair to a shaded border, create a statement in a container, or accent a water feature, Aloha delivers fast-growing impact from late spring through fall.

Tropical Beauty That Thrives in Moisture

Colocasia species are native to wetland areas of Asia and have been cultivated for thousands of years for their edible corms (the well-known taro). The 'Aloha' cultivar brings that same vigorous growth habit to the ornamental garden, with foliage that emerges fresh and glossy throughout the season. The leaves naturally shed water in sheets, a fascinating adaptation that keeps the plant healthy in rainy conditions. In warm climates, you may even see the plant produce cream-colored spathes that resemble calla lilies, though the real show is the foliage.

Versatile Garden Uses

Plant Aloha Elephant Ear along pond margins where its roots can access consistent moisture, or use it to anchor mixed containers where its bold leaves contrast beautifully with fine-textured annuals. The plant works equally well in shaded woodland gardens, tropical-themed borders, or as a specimen in large decorative pots flanking entryways. In zones 8-11, plants will return reliably each spring once established. In cooler zones, grow as an annual or dig the corms in fall and store them indoors like dahlias.

Low-Maintenance Tropical Impact

Once established with consistent moisture, Aloha Elephant Ear practically grows itself. The fast growth rate means you'll see substantial size within weeks of planting, and the plants continue to produce new leaves throughout the summer. Deer and rabbits typically avoid the foliage due to calcium oxalate crystals in the leaves. The plant's water-loving nature makes it forgiving in areas where other tropicals might struggle with humidity or occasional overwatering.

This is the plant that makes neighbors stop and ask questions. The sheer size and exotic appearance of elephant ear foliage creates a focal point that anchors garden beds and containers with bold, confident style.

awesome company
Color: Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
I ordered one of the frothers and it stopped working in about 1 month. The company was so pleasant to work with and immediately sent me a new one to replace the one I had. They offered me an option of a rechargeable one with a little more cost or the battery powered free. I chose the battery powered and received it quickly. They are an awesome company with great prices and stand behind their products. Nice to see this in a company. Will be buying more items from them in the future!!

A Frother that Won't Turn Off? Great Service. Lost Package. Great Hot Chocolate. Worth It!
Color: Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
I saw this item (or one similar) on an Alton Brown short video. He recommended a frother and I thought "what the heck? If AB recommends a uni-tasker, it must be something good." The item came in, loaded with batteries and all. I removed the plastic tab that interrupts the power and the unit kicked on. I wasn't pressing anything. It just started and would not stop. To return the item is not worth the time or money, especially since none of the "free return" options are anywhere close to me. Called the company and told them what had happened. I spoke with a very nice woman and after I described what happened, her response was not faux sympathy, but "that shouldn't have happened. We'll make it right." She offered not only to replace the unit, but send a second one free of charge. When I declined the second one, she said "take it for your troubles. Give it to a friend if you want." The order was sent out. Tracking via USPS was sent. The package was supposed to be delivered on a Friday, which was great as we were supposed to get cold temps and snow. I was anticipating making frothy hot chocolate. Suddenly the tracking showed the package being delivered. It was not. You cannot ask the USPS to find a package for 7 days and my local post office doesn't answer the phone. Disappointed, I started to make dinner and looked out the window and I could see my postal carrier's truck a block away. I waddled over to the truck and talked to her. She said "I know where it is." She had delivered it 3 blocks away. Same house number, but different street. She went and found the package, brought it to me and Bob's your uncle. That night I made hot chocolate and used the frother. I was surprised that the long shaft did not vibrate or waiver. It stays true. The speed is fast, but not overly so. The thing made a difference. It seemed to make the hot chocolate "lighter" and smoother. I threw a piece of chocolate in the mug, waited a little and then frothed again using the frother. No issues with the frother. I now had frothy, really chocolate-ly hot chocolate. For kicks and on the advice of a friend, I added a tablespoon of peppermint schnapps and used the frother again. Best hot chocolate from a mix I ever had. The frother worked better than advertised. Woo Hoo!! Because the first one didn't work, I have to knock a star off of the rating for the product. But the customer service and actual accountability of the women with whom I spoke is refreshing in the world of product support and customer service. The item is really good and would recommend whole heartedly.

Worth it!
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
It works great! Makes a big difference and my coffee is better! Easy to use and clean. The stand is perfect to keep it accessible. Only thing I would warn customers is to pay attention to instructions on how to insert batteries.

High Quality and Surprisingly Powerful
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
The Pros: Unexpected Power: I usually know exactly what to expect with the products I order, but this unit really blew me away. It is surprisingly powerful and handles everything much better than I anticipated. Premium Batteries Included: It was a great surprise to find that it came with Duracell batteries. Seeing a name-brand battery included really speaks to the overall quality of the product and shows they aren't cutting corners. Solid Build: From the moment I set it up, the unit felt sturdy and well-constructed. It is rare to be this genuinely pleased with a purchase right out of the box. The Cons: Operating Noise: Because the motor is so powerful, it does produce a bit more noise than some weaker units. It isn't a dealbreaker, but it is noticeable during extended use. Bottom Line: This is a high-quality product that exceeded my expectations in both performance and presentation. The fact that it comes ready to go with reliable batteries is a huge plus. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Pleasantly surprised.
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
Honestly, I bought this because it was on sale and I needed to add something to my cart to get one day free shipping. I had zero expectations and thought I'd use it when I travel and won't have access to my espresso machine but I'm blown away by what it can accomplish in its small form factor. It took 30s to froth the milk and it was well-incorporated into the milk, not with just foam on top and milk at the bottom. I could have the frothed milk all day. It's easier to clean than the steam wand and it does plant-based milk cold foam!! It blows the Ikea one out of the water for about the same price point. Glad I stumbled into it!
