Lime Zinger Elephant Ears
These are really nice elephant ears, photo taken at a nursery here in Nashville, TN. Got a small plant for myself recently.

Re: Lime Zinger Elephant Ears
Neat stuff Frank. I would assume this nursery keeps all their tender plants in a greenhouse over winter?
Very impressive collection of plants given the location. I would expect them to be in Florida with the photo's you have been sharing. Mike |

Re: Lime Zinger Elephant Ears
A lot of these plants are in a new butterfly greenhouse, like these EEs and the Ae Aes I posted. All but the last two (purple, and gold variegated) bananas are at this nursery. The owner, Calvin, is quite the banana and alocasia fan, and has a great collection of neat stuff. He also has a thing for variegated plants! He has friends in the business that keep an eye out for unusual stuff for him. This is their first year in business after buying out previous owner, and he promises that next year he'll have even more neat stuff. Can't wait!!

Re: Lime Zinger Elephant Ears
SG,
Can't remember exactly, but they had some good size to them. Maybe 4-5 feet. They really make quite a statement. |
