Review: Fast Grower! - Feed Me Seymour! This is the faster grower I’ve ever cared for. It barely finishes popping up a new leaf and then the next one is breaking out already. The original leaves both dropped when I got it, but I kept watering it and then eventually repotted when I saw roots growing through the drainage holes. Put it next to my AeroGarden for some ambient light. It usually will drop the oldest leaf when a new one comes in, but it has slowly gone from supporting 2 leaves to 4 leaves now. It’s been about 6 months and the leaves are getting HUGE now. Very pretty plant, worried I might need to repot again before next winter. Keep the soil boggy, think of it growing next to a pond.
Review: Could not revive it - This is beautiful. I bought it simultaneously with a stingray from this seller. Well packaged but it is so small, (only 1 leaf seedling) that it did not survive transportation. The bulb was in good condition. I hoped it would regrow. It eventually did give me a tiny shoot a few months later. It soon died. I gave it the suggested care and conditions, but this plant requires a level of care when it's a seedling, that not even optimal home conditions with grow lights, temperature adjustments, and a humidifier can keep it alive. The stingray survived and is thriving,

## Features

- GROW TO MATURITY: This plant has the potential to reach a height range of 4-5 feet. However, upon arrival, it will be only 3-8 inches in height and will come in a 3-inch deep pot, which gives you the opportunity to take care of it and help it grow to full maturity under your green thumb. By providing it with the proper care, such as the right amount of water, sunlight, and nutrients, you can ensure that it reaches its full potential and thrives in your home or garden.
- GORGEOUS GLOSSY LEAVES: The Black Coral Elephant Ear PPAF Live Plant has beautiful, shiny dark leaves with striking electric blue veins that will add a touch of glamour to your garden.
- EXCELLENT FOR SHADY AREAS: This plant thrives in partial shade of 65%-75% and can tolerate brighter conditions. It flourishes in damp but well-drained soil, making it an excellent option for places with high moisture levels and less sunlight.
- DORMANCY: During winter, this plant typically sheds its leaves and may appear leafless when you receive it, but don't worry, it's a natural and beneficial process. Similar to hibernation, dormancy plays a crucial role in the growth cycle as the plant focuses on developing its roots rather than producing new growth. Despite its leafless appearance, the plant is still healthy and will sprout new leaves in spring when the days and nights get warmer and brighter.
- EXCELLENT QUALITY: The nursery where this plant originates from is licensed (Florida Nursery Registration No: 47234100). Wellspring Gardens ensures that customers receive plants that are in excellent condition and are grown in an optimal environment, which promotes healthy growth and enhances their beauty.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Arrived and Thrived!
*by A***R on January 5, 2024*

A lot of people don’t know what a juvenile plant looks like; please don’t let them scare you away from getting this plant. Similarly, they don’t know what shipping stress is either. I’m genuinely glad I tried this seller out, because I received a cute little friend in some pretty neat packaging. I got what was exactly as advertised: a “baby” black coral elephant ear. Expect it to be small, and don’t expect it to be jet black right out of the box. The poor thing has been through shipping, and less sun = less black and more green. Pot her up immediately, give her quality grow lights or really good sunshine, and she WILL turn black and start growing more leaves. I unpacked a perfectly healthy elephant ear child who was a roughly darkish green color due to age and lack of sun, quickly darkening up within three days of delivery and full sun exposure. Please note that my photos are after a month of having this little friend in some good summer sun, and a few drinks of nitrogen rich fertilizer. The leaves become glossier as the plant ages, giving you that classic black coral look. While young, the leaves will be more matte like in my photos; I took them when my little guy was still getting there. The first two original leaves died off after being replaced by new ones, and are not in my photos. Again, this was expected as the plant went through the stress of shipping. For some reason, a lot of people don’t understand this either. LEAVES WILL DIE. AND BE REPLACED. Your plants need love, sunshine, water, and time! Dieback is normal! Overall, I’m really happy I tried this seller, because I literally got what I wanted and paid for. I plan on ordering a black magic too as I ended up really liking the matte look the young black coral leaves gave off, but will probably wait until spring.
