elephant's ears 'Vinterglöd'

Grow in any soil that is not boggy, in sun or shade, but best in moist but well-drained soil in a cool sheltered position with partial shade from taller trees or shrubs, which will give the flowers protection from late frosts, and so prolong the flowering season; however a more exposed position and less rich soil will encourage winter colouring

No pruning required but faded flower spikes can be removed

Propagate by division in spring or autumn

May be affected by leaf and bud eelworm and vine weevil

May be affected by a fungal leaf spot
