Looks awesome! You got a ton of planting done this week! Cant wait to see all of that full out, its already looking tropical!

Everything looks great! I cant believe the size of your upright EE's. Did you let them die back before digging them? Mine are only about 8" tall. But I did leave them in the ground over winter too.

I got my upright elephant ear bulbs in March and they didnt even make a true leaf yet! Not sure whats going on with them, the elephant ear I overwintered inside from last year has already grown 2 large leaves this season. Yours looks great Bradleyo!

I let them get hit by frost last year before digging up. I then planted almost immediately and had them going in my my grown room thru the winter. I'm hoping they can get some serious size to them this year.

Looking very nice and neat. You have a good layer of mulch there. What is the palm in photos 7, 8 and 9? In photo 7 it's a bit more than halfway between the Alocasia and the Banana. In photo 8 it's the first palm going straight back behind the Alocasia.

Bradleyo, I always thought they needed a period of dormacy. If they don't get back to last years size I will try that this winter.

tropic - the palm is a needle palm and there is another right in front of the Hopi crape in the adjacent bed.

chad - I wouldn't think they need a period of dormancy, they don't die back in South Florida, so I would guess they only die back after getting cut down by a frost.
