Planting Instructions

Mojito Taro may be planted in the landscape or in pots for your deck or patio. Keep soil moist in containers and lift tender bulbs before 1st frost and overwinter indoors in a cool, dark, dry place. If placing Mojito in pond, submerse pot in a few inches of water, not over the top of pot, only allow the roots to be submerged. Mojito Taro grows well in part sun to part shade.

When you get your taro/elephant ear you should replant in its new large pot however acclimate this for 3-4 days out of direct sunlight on the north side of your home in a calm tray of water letting the pot uptake the moisture it needs until it acclimates some new roots and then move that new larger pot into the pond around the 4th day moving if in direct sunlight to prevent wilting after acclimation.
