They love the sun. Direct sunlight.

OzPlantGirl is right. Other than that, elephant ears are really not hard to grow (at all!) They are not cold-hardy- you'll need to dig up the bulbs if the soil freezes where you live! (Where we are in the Deep South, zone 8b, the soil never freezes. The foliage dies back over winter but returns every spring!) Mostly though they are nonfussy, hardy, beautiful plants! Best of luck with them! 🌿✨💚
