Elephant Ears Bulbs Plumbea Nigra is a striking evergreen plant native to Indonesia. Its dramatic, nearly black, dark green leaves are supported by robust purple stems, creating a bold visual impact unlike no other plant in the garden. This Alocasia variety reaches a height of three to five feet, making it an excellent choice for adding a tropical, dramatic flair to gardens or patio containers. A fast-growing, broadleaf semi-evergreen perennial, it is prized for its glossy, eye-catching foliage. Commonly known as black metallic taro or nigra elephant ear.
