The answer depends on where you want the Elephant ears to grow. Elephant ears typically like a sunny spot in the garden. Black elephant ears are no different. Usually when I get a new variety of Elephant ear I put them in pots for several years until I get plenty of new plants. This helps as Elephant ears need plenty of water and the area I live in is partially arid and prone to droughts. Other than that I just give them potting soil, or freshly mulched topsoil to grow. They are rather easy plants to grow as they are not particularly fussy. Every two years I give the plants fresh soil if they are in a pot. Try looking out for the variegated and red varieties of elephant ears too.
