Lindak;

Thanks! They do have an incredible leaf...with metallic green above and purple below.

The elephant's ear plant that I have grown here has small pink flowers in the spring and a flat shiny large green leaf to it.

Lindak:

There's many genera encompassing hundreds of species of Elephant's ear plants. The hybrids are almost endless also.
