Very nice. Elephant ears are so gorgeous. Now that we have the driveway garden, we should be able to finally grow some next year. What a treat that would be. I was wondering too, if you have tried to grow a Banana Tree. You have enough sun. They give such a tropical air to an area. When I think Elephant Ears, I tend to also think about Banana trees.

It gets icy and snowy in the winter here with below zero temps for weeks on end...so even if a person does banana trees they have to be wrapped in the winter...there are people who have them around here...but looks like way too much trouble to me. The Elephant ears winter over ok most of the time, I just pile leaves on the whole flower bed and add extra leaves over all the tubers.

This was delightful. Those elephant ears dancing across the paths....simply wonderful.

As a side note....I like the border you added to these. Nicely done.

Thanks Renda, I added 20 pixels of white canvas all around the picture and then 20 pixels of black canvas and then resized to 550 across..I am totally taken with these pictures and thinking of printing them out for framing and hanging in the hallway

They would make beautiful prints. If you decide to do it, you will have to take a photo of them in the hallway so we can see how well they look.

I'm thinking a large white Mat with black frame for one of the photos..and maybe a long frame with 3 pictures in it for another...I have a very long hall
