Bulbs are growing
I planted all three bulbs that I received. Seems like only one came up at first. The other two came up about a month after the first one.

Hmmm?!
UPDATE 8/8/2021VERY disappointed!One of three bulbs actually grew. One totally lost and one we dug up so we can use the designated space. One grew, the leaves look different then what is pictured. The leaves are facing down. I could have gotten these locally, a lot less expensive around here. Second bulb we dug up and soaked them left out on a garden bench began to grow about 1 week ago. Third bulb disintegrated. Buyer be were!!We bought 3 elephant eat bulbs late December 2020. I had opened the package and the first bulb look fresh and round and perfect. When today comes, May 16, 2021 I am excited to get my 3 bulbs out and plant them. To my surprise, the middle bulb was significantly smaller, more hollow feeling and all around inferior. We soaked the bulbs and planted all 3 bulbs in beautiful organic soil. Time will tell if Thai middle bulb will be viable. It is my fault for not examining all 3 bulbs when I received the package. I just wanted to share my experience. The photo is the 3 bulbs soaking in water. The bulb in the right is the bulb in question. I will update this review as the season progresses.

Incredible Bulbs for a Great Price!
I am so thrilled with these bulbs! They are impressive in size, shape, and feel! They are about a half fist size, they are solid, with an alive and hairy feel! I planted them yesterday! I will by more of these and I highly recommend! 3 bulbs for about $12 bucks and the quality EXCEEDS all other bulbs I have ever purchased! No doubt, these are going to grow! Good Luck on your gardening!

2 bulbs look great
Two bulbs look great, one is rotten. I tired reaching out to the supplier, but it brings me to a bbq website. not sure if they shipped it this way, or if it happened during shipment.

I purchased this 3-bulb colocasia pack and planted them shortly after receiving them. Before planting, I soaked the bulbs overnight in water with fertilizer, then wrapped them in a paper towel for about 3 hours. All bulbs sprouted successfully and are now growing into healthy, beautiful plants.

Only 2 are growing well
UPDATE: I bought these again by mistake, and NONE of the 3 bulbs sprouted. What a waste of money!I'm torn between giving these 3 or 4 stars. I'm torn because only 2 of them are growing well.The bulbs were a good size and all 3 looked healthy. I planted one at first, and then about 2 weeks later I planted the other two. The one I planted first is not growing. It had a 2-week head start, which is why it's disappointing. I'm going to wait another week, and if it's still not growing, I will dig it up and take a look at it.For reference, I used the same potting soil for all 3 and they all get the same amount of sun and water.The first picture shows the one planted a few weeks before the other two. You can clearly see the difference.

Hoping for BIG things
My purchase of these elephant ear bulbs (alocasia) also known as taro where it is eaten in places like Asia, New Zealand and Hawaii., was inspired by my trip to Asia this summer, specifically Bali where these huge lush plants were all over the place. They arrived on time and packaged just as the description & other reviews stated. They come with some planting instructions on a small piece of paper and in my opinion we’re not expensive, price point seemed appropriate. While in Bali I instantly fell in love with their size & BEAUTY. Back home here in the states I live in zone 7, but my mini research gave me hope that they can be grown & maintained here as an indoor house plant. I don’t have the greenest thumb but based on that mini research, I’m focused & dedicated to bringing this plant to life & watching it thrive throughout the years. I’ll come back and update my review in about 3-4 weeks to see if we get any action coming up out of the planter. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾

one didn't grow
Out of 3 bulbs only 2 grew. I guess that is not bad odds.
User
the size is small.
The bulbs were small but ok.
User
Elephant ears plant
Waste of money. Got them, looked small. 5 months later, little plants NOT the big plant that was advertised. Very disappointing
User
Take a pass on these…
Planted them as soon as I got them around our pond but they never came up at all? And I have a green thumb. For the money it’s expensive for bad seeds.
