They literally dribble water from their leaves.
I usually get orange seeds lateron and when they drop, they sprout and grow.What kind of bug is this under landscape rocks and in my flower pots?A third flower is forming on the plant.

Don't let the seeds dry out, most aroid seeds need to remain moist or they lose their viability. "I may be wrong because I don't remember the original source of my information, but I believe that many aroids can be forced to bloom by spraying them with a solution of gibberellic acid (GA).
There are something close to 5000 tropical plants that could qualify as an "Elephant Ear". You'll also need to keep them warm as they germinate and grow, northern Victoria will get too cold in winter for them. My husband planted these a few weeks ago in our back yard - damp and shady area. Meanwhile, if you recognize the species please let me know what I’ve got. this looks like a Leopard Plant (Farfugium japonicum).Aroids have a very characteristic inflorescence consisting of spadix (sort of a spike covered with tiny flowers) that is wrapped in spathe (modified bract).Why don't my photos appear after I've typed a comment? You have spent a lot of money on the room. Contemporary means style of the times.
To me the blooms are a sign of a happy elephant ear!Besides the flowers and huge leaves, there’s another interesting thing about elephant ears. I mean........really : ) Once a week sounds under watered, or not enough indirect sun......and a pot too small as well. There's also an Elephant Ear Wattle, Acacia dunnii. A number of plants have leaves resembling elephant ears. All aroids produce a spathe and spadix. Sixteen years with a plant is impressive!Could be Alocasia macrorrhizos, but I’m not sure. We do have pictures! Is this normal? When growing Colocasia inside, be sure to choose a fairly large container to pot the plant in. Honestly, an unhealthy plant is far worse than no plant. Use a humidifier in the room where you plan on growing Colocasia inside. They started as strangly plants I picked up on clearance at the grocery store and turned into I used a hand truck to bring the pots inside to overwinter. I viewed some pictures on the internet and there are so many, and who knows if they are labeled right, it’s hard to tell. It’s such a pleasure to watch elephant ears grow.Each plant is producing two blooms and then another leaf. Your room has great bones and everything looks great together.Thanks CLC! "Hey, don't eat your house plants, how about you just try that?" Throw it out. The flowers are white, and I have a digital picture available. The common name "elephant ear plant" can refer to any of them. FWIW, I have plenty of bee friendly flowers and veggies growing on the opposite side of the yard which were of course, not sprayed ;) Thank you all for the help :)Little late to the party, but many tropical plants will reabsorb nutrients from dying leaves. We used to bring the entire plant in for the winter, but this year it had too many "babies," and we decided to take out the multiple bulbs and let them winter inside in a dormant state. And you do. Adding a little neem oil might be a good idea as well. The elephant’s-ear plant gets its name from the leaves, which are shaped like a large ear or shield. Except spathiphyllums already grow and flower like weeds without using GA. On my first trip to Hawaii, I thought, "Hawaii has too much spathiphyllum. We are in the Dallas/Ft.Worth metro. I'm wondering what's so special about these two small ones I have, maybe just a lighter green foliage? I live in Zone 7, Central Virginia, and have an elephant ear with two flowers. I have chewed dieffenbachia leaves just to see what the fuss is about and it wasn't very bad, not nearly as bad as chewing a Habanero pepper. A couple of weeks ago I spotted a flower on one of my elephant ears, presently there are two flowers on all three of my elephant ears. I brought the entire plant inside to winter as a "houseplant." The stalk was broken so I cut it off and brought it inside.
I have heard of them flowering but never heard of two flowers on a single plant.my african mask 'poly' started blooming after a couple of years, but it was a pretty large plant to begin with, probably 2-3yrs old when i got it.I live in Buffalo NY and noticed 3 white flowers on my elephant ear. On one of the plants, I had to carefully remove the covering and on another, I broke the flower thinking the covering was a stuck leaf.The flowers aren’t showy but I’m thrilled to have them. In the picture below you can see the streams of water running down the leaf.I water my elephant ears liberally once or twice a day. I’ve been fooled by many an elephant ear!Thanks for taking a shot, Andrew. will I have volunteers all over the place? I think you should be happy for now .
I think that once people caught onto just how dangerous that plant can be, I've seen a serious decrease in their popularity.
Post was not sent - check your email addresses! But we moved into a new house and we are covered in various ants and other insects in front yard and back, and previous owners have had termite or carpenter ant problems before... We tried isolated granular ant killer but it has barely made a dent so we had to spray:/ These little guys are crawling all over everything though...including our furniture and grill :/. Alocasia macrorrhizos looks very close!
