Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Waikiki')

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear is a colorful tropical foliage plant valued for its glossy green leaves, bright white veining, and vivid pink central markings. Its high-contrast foliage brings a fresh, polished look to patios, poolside plantings, large containers, moist garden beds, and tropical-style landscapes. This compact clumping selection offers bold elephant ear texture in a more manageable size than many larger Colocasia varieties. With warmth, rich soil, steady moisture, and sun to partial shade, Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear creates a lush, colorful display through the growing season.

Distinctive Features

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear produces glossy green leaves accented by strong white veins and bright pink coloring through the center of the foliage. The leaf pattern gives the plant a distinctive tropical look that stands out against dark foliage, chartreuse plants, and bright seasonal flowers. It forms a compact clump, making it especially useful in containers and designed beds where bold foliage is desired without excessive spread. Flowers may appear occasionally as a spathe and spadix, but this plant is grown primarily for its dramatic foliage and warm-season color.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Grows best in full sun to partial shade, with afternoon shade helpful in very hot climates to protect the colorful foliage from stress.
  • Soil: Prefers fertile, humusy, organically rich soil that stays consistently moist while still supporting healthy root growth.
  • Water: Performs best with medium to wet soil and should not be allowed to dry out completely during active warm-season growth.
  • USDA Zones: Hardy outdoors in USDA Zones 7 to 11 in protected conditions, while colder climates should treat it as a seasonal container plant or overwinter the tubers indoors.
  • Mature Size: Typically reaches about 3 feet tall and 3 feet wide in favorable outdoor conditions, with container-grown plants varying by pot size and care.
  • Habit: Forms a compact upright to spreading clump with broad variegated leaves rising from the base on sturdy petioles.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a colorful foliage focal point in large containers, patios, poolside plantings, courtyard beds, tropical-style landscapes, or moist garden areas where its white and pink markings can stand out.
  • Container Planting: Grow in a decorative pot where its compact clumping habit and bright foliage can provide strong color and be moved or protected before cold weather.
  • Moist Garden: Plant in consistently moist beds, rain gardens, or pond-edge settings where its tolerance for wet soil can support strong growth.
  • Tropical Garden: Pair with dark elephant ears, cannas, bananas, caladiums, gingers, coleus, and bright annuals to create a layered warm-season display.
  • Mixed Border: Use in mixed beds where its glossy patterned foliage can add contrast, texture, and tropical color among lower plants.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water regularly during active growth to keep the soil consistently moist, especially in containers and hot summer weather.
  • Mulching: Apply mulch around outdoor plants to conserve moisture, moderate soil temperature, and reduce weed competition.
  • Fertilizing: Feed during the active growing season with a balanced fertilizer to support strong foliage production and steady growth.
  • Wind Protection: Site in a sheltered location because strong wind can tear or damage the large ornamental leaves.
  • Overwintering: Lift and store tubers or move containers indoors before frost in climates where the plant is not reliably hardy.
  • Leaf Cleanup: Remove yellowing, torn, or frost-damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant looking clean and encourage fresh growth.

Why Choose Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear?

  • Colorful Foliage: Displays glossy green leaves with bold white veins and bright pink centers for a distinctive tropical look.
  • Compact Clumping Habit: Offers bold elephant ear impact in a more manageable form for containers, patios, and designed plantings.
  • Moisture Tolerance: Performs well in medium to wet soils, making it useful near ponds, rain gardens, and water features.
  • Fast Warm-Season Growth: Responds quickly to heat, water, and fertility with strong foliage production during the growing season.
  • Container Friendly: Works well in patio pots where it can be featured outdoors in summer and protected before frost.

Royal Hawaiian Waikiki Elephant Ear is an excellent choice for gardeners who want tropical foliage with bright color, compact growth, and strong seasonal impact. Its glossy green leaves, white veining, pink centers, clumping habit, and love of moisture make it a standout plant for containers, patios, moist garden beds, and colorful warm-season landscape designs.

The most complete, compact wallet I've ever seen!!
This is the most complete, compact wallet I have ever seen, there is a space for everything, even coins. I ordered 2, one for me and one for him. Mine does not fit in my purse, it's 10 inches long. I'm debating, should I return mine or keep it. I've searched for one similar, less than 10 inches, and found nothing. He is so excited and happy, he has already filled his up. This is the only wallet one needs AND it's RFID blocking.

What an amazing adapter/outlet!
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
This adapter/outlet is the best I've used for my travels (Internationally). It stands out in a crowded market with its versatility and convenience. It supports plugs from many countries, including the US, UK, EU, Asia and Africa, making it an ideal companion for travelers. Please note: that this outlet does not convert voltage (iPhones/Tablets/Gadgets with USB connections are OK). Design and Build Quality: The adapter is compact and well-built, featuring a sturdy design that can withstand the rigors of travel. It fits in the of your hand (adults) and takes no luggage space at all. The 3ft cable from the outlet is helpful so that the outlet sits away from the wall allowing plenty of room on a table/stand, for multi-devices to be charged without congestion. Functionality: One of the standout features of this adapter is its multiple USB ports. It includes 2 USB-A and 2 USB-C port, allowing you to charge multiple devices simultaneously and quickly. This is particularly useful for charging smartphones, tablets, and other gadgets without needing multiple adapters. Comes with 2 additional outlet attachments to be used either in UK/US/Africa/Asia Performance: The adapter performs exceptionally well, providing a stable and reliable connection. The USB ports offer fast charging, which is a significant advantage when you’re on the go. Pros: Supports plugs from many countries Multiple USB ports (2 USB-A and 2 USB-C) Compact and durable design Fast charging capabilities Cons: None so far Conclusion: Very happy with this International outlet that can also be used for daily usage.

Perfect accessory for travelers to Europe
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
I travel to Europe yearly, so it made sense to purchase a power strip with a type C plug rather than traveling with multiple adapters. Even with a 3-foot cord, it's the perfect travel-friendly extension cord. I love that there are three standard USA outlets, as well as two each USB-C and USB-A ports. Even better, it's lightweight and doesn't take up much room in my luggage. It's very reasonably priced, has great functionality, and I highly recommend it for fellow travelers.

Best plug if you are traveling to France or Europe
Style: Type C/G/A-Most Countries-3FT
If you ever need a European plug, this is the one to get. I took it with me to France for a whole month and it was a life saver. I was able to plug all my electronics and also have no issues with the conversion of watts. Now that I have it I take it with me anytime I travel to Europe.
