Elephantiasis (el-e-fan-TY-a-sis) is the result of a tropical worm infection called filariasis (fil-a-RY-a-sis). When infected mosquitoes transmit the parasitic worm Wuchereria bancrofti to people, the worm blocks the lymphatic system. The blockage causes swelling in the legs or other parts of the body, making these body parts appear large and puffy, or elephant-like. Elephantiasis is not elephant man disease, which is an inherited condition with completely different causes and symptoms.
Overview. Elephant ears (Colocasia esculenta) are tropical plants that thrive in sunlight or shade and need a humid environment. In northern regions, such as USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6, elephant ears grow from tubers, or corms, which are dug up each fall and planted again in the spring.It is possible to bring the plant into the house for the winter and return it to the outside when danger from frost has passed.tep 5. Dig up the elephant ear tubers early in the fall when temperatures start falling below 50 degrees F. Lift the tubers from the soil with a garden fork, being careful not to damage them. Store the tubers in a paper bag in a cool, dry place during the winter. Divide the tubers before replanting in the spring.
