Default Re: Calcium deficiency

I have had problems with a certain kind of elephant ear which grows very big but not for me. I found out that 2 of the places that have these big elephant ears were at one time an oyster shell drive way. So the other day I stopped by the oyster house and got a few shells and crushed them up and mixed in the soil around my elephant ears and they are putting out new leaves. I am thinking they like the calcium but who knows. So we'll see what happens
