| I want to plant an Elephant Ear bulb but I am not sure which way is up! How can I tell? |
| It is difficult to tell which end should go up! It takes a little bit of investigation and some guesswork. Look at the tuber, one end should have a little more "hairiness" to it. That is the end that should be planted down. Also, one end may be slightly more tapered/pointy. That end goes up. If you really can't tell, plant the bulb sideways--the roots will find their way down, the shoots up. |
