A question for the garden-savvy folkโ€ฆ

These have sprouted in a garden bed where there was nothing like this before. I think they might have come in mulch or compost I got from Bunnings. Are they weeds, or should I keep them? Checking because Iโ€™m having enough trouble with pellitory and donโ€™t want more weeds to deal with.

Might be:

Elephant's-ear

Giant taro

Cunjevoi

They sort of all look the same (to me anyway). I have one very similar to yours and it gets quite big with enough water.

[โ€“] anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Thanks! Iโ€™ll investigate further :-)

This site might help.

I was struggling to work out what mine was and still confused lol.

Thatโ€™s fantastic, thank you!

E: think Iโ€™ve narrowed it down to an alocasia or colocasia - they all look very similar

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago

same

they are the devil to get rid of , just a small fragment will grow into a big plant

but if you like them that's cool

If they turn out to be elephant ear and you donโ€™t want them, you can dig them up and sell them, Iโ€™ve seen them on marketplace.

Does anyone know what these are called?

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Have never seen before. Looks like pikelets stuck together with jam?
