Giant Elephant Ear Taro Tree 170cm

The Premium Solution for Drooping, Fragile Tropical Foliage

Love the breathtaking, oversized drama of a tropical urban jungle aesthetic, but struggling to keep massive leaves looking healthy? Real Elephant Ear plants are notorious indoor heartbreakers, their giant leaves demanding precise humidity and constant misting, quickly drooping, ripping, or turning brown at the edges if the indoor lighting or room temperature changes slightly.

Standing at an impressive 170cm, our Giant Elephant Ear Taro Tree solves your styling frustrations instantly, delivering that bold, high-impact architectural icon straight to your space with absolutely zero maintenance. Completely immune to drying air conditioners, heaters, and windowless hallways where real tropical varieties would shrivel within weeks, it provides a permanent, vibrant canopy that never thins out.

🌿 Dramatic Tropical Realism: Make a bold, architectural statement with the iconic Elephant Ear silhouette. Standing at an impressive 170cm, this Giant Taro plant features oversized, heart-shaped leaves that capture the lush, vibrant essence of a rainforest canopy, bringing an immediate upscale, organic energy to your space.

🌿 Artisanal Flex-Leaf Technology: Crafted from high-quality, flexible materials, each leaf stem can be gently bent and shaped to your exact preference. Whether you want a wide, dramatic fan for an open living area or a more upright, slender profile for a tight corner layout, this tree adapts to your specific design needs.

🌿 Exquisite Textural Detail: The large, vibrant green leaves and stems are meticulously designed to mimic the natural veins and waxy sheen of a living Taro. This incredible attention to detail ensures an authentic appearance that provides a calming, natural accent to any modern, coastal, or bohemian decor, completely passing the close-up test.

🌿 Seamless Smart Assembly: Experience the luxury of a grand 1.7-metre tropical plant without any shipping hassle. Designed to protect the oversized foliage during transit, the tree features a straightforward, high-density slot assembly. The simple setup allows you to achieve a professional-grade, stable botanical display in just minutes.

🌿 Zero-Maintenance Tranquility: Enjoy the stunning aesthetic of a high-humidity tropical plant without the specialized misting, precise watering, or messy soil. This set and forget masterpiece stays perfectly lush and evergreen 365 days a year, requiring nothing more than a quick wipe with a damp cloth to keep the foliage pristine.

Styling Tip: Giant Elephant Ear plants are a designer's secret for filling vertical volume and softening blank walls.

The oversized leaves create incredible, moody shadow-play on your floors and walls as the natural light shifts throughout the day!

Care and Maintenance Guide

One of the biggest advantages of artificial plants is how little they ask of you. No watering, no fertilising, no worrying about sunlight. But a little care goes a long way in keeping your faux greenery looking vibrant and realistic for years to come.

Dusting
Gently dust leaves with a soft, dry cloth or feather duster weekly to maintain their natural appearance.

Deep cleaning
For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the finish. Ideally, use our Artifical Plant Cleaner that comes in two sizes. 1000ml and 250ml.

Shaping
Gently reshape leaves and stems by hand to restore their natural form after unpacking or moving.

Outdoor plants
Our UV-resistant outdoor artificial plants can be rinsed with a garden hose to remove pollen, dust, and surface dirt.

Hanging Plants
Take hanging plants down from their hook before cleaning, it's much easier at bench height.

Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Keep in original packaging when possible to protect from dust.

Refer to our full Care Guide for more details.

FAQ

Do your plants look realistic?

Absolutely - that's our whole thing! We're very selective about the products we stock, choosing only those that closely mimic the look and feel of real plants. Many of our customers say their guests can't tell the difference.

Are your plants suitable for outdoors?

Some of our range is suitable for covered outdoor areas such as patios, balconies, and verandahs. We recommend checking the individual product description for outdoor suitability, and avoiding prolonged direct exposure to harsh Australian sun and rain, which can cause fading over time.

Are your products pet-safe?

Our artificial plants are generally considered safer than many real plants, which can be toxic to pets. However, as our products are decorative items and not certified pet-safe, we recommend keeping them out of reach of curious pets who may chew or ingest materials.

Are your products child-safe?

Our products are decorative and not designed as toys. We recommend keeping smaller items out of reach of young children. All products comply with Australian consumer safety standards.

How do I clean my artificial plants?

Keeping your faux plants looking fresh is easy! A light dusting with a soft cloth or a gentle blast with a hairdryer on a cool setting works well for most pieces. For a deeper clean, a damp cloth or a light spray with water and a drop of mild detergent will do the trick. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Will the colours fade over time?

Our products are designed to be long-lasting. However, like most materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause some fading over time. For best results, we recommend placing your plants away from harsh direct sunlight.

Do I need to water or maintain them?

Never! That's the beauty of faux plants - no watering, no pruning, no fertilising, and no worrying about sunlight. Just place them and enjoy.
