Monrovia® Hawaiian Punch Elephant Ear is a dramatic, frost tender tuberous perennial grown for its massive, lightly waved arrow-shaped foliage with red-purple stems and under veins. Its canna-lily like summer flowers are infrequent and often hidden in the foliage when they do bloom. The best color occurs with filtered light and rich, moist to marginal soils. If grown in area that experiences frost, bring inside to overwinter or treat as an annual.
