Elephants in the yard

At the end of April, Ross planted 3 mysterious bulbs that he picked up at the Home Depot. They were hard as rock and approximately the size of a large coconut.

About three weeks ago they sprouted and very quickly, grew their giant, elephant ear leaves.

Well, as of this week, the suckers are taking over the yard and the leaves are bigger than my hand, my foot, my face.

Ross is quite proud of his bulbs. If you see him around, tell him that he dig a good job digging a hole and throwing them in the ground.
