Description
The mid-morning sun shines on the green leaves of the elephant ear plant in my pasture. When I asked in a local Facebook group what this plant is, I got a range of answers. Colloquially, it is called elephant ear, which is what I have been calling it. Most agree it is a colocasia or xanthosoma species, although another suggested it may be a taro. When I looked all these names up, the photographs of xanthosoma roseum most closely match what I have.

Beautiful work. I know this one as Elephant Ear too.
Katrina Gunn replied:
Thank you! All of the more specific names I looked up are commonly called elephant ear, so that could be any of about half a dozen or more different plants.
