Introduce a touch of tropical grandeur to your garden with the Alocasia 'Portora' Ruffled Upright Elephant Ear. A tuberous perennial of distinct character, this plant is celebrated for its massive, erect leaves that stretch towards the sky. Its olive-green foliage, adorned with intriguing ruffles and dark purple veins, is held aloft by sturdy dusty purple stems, creating an impressive architectural display.

While Alocasia 'Portora' Ruffled, also known as the ruffled upright elephant's ear, blooms rarely, its tiny summer flowers provide a delightful feast for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Its rapid growth rate and upright habit make it an eye-catching focal point or a picturesque screen in your garden. It can also serve as a lush backdrop for vibrant flowers in beds and borders.

This tropical marvel thrives in large containers, both indoors and outdoors, although it may not reach its full growth potential when potted. It's an excellent choice for those looking to add a touch of the tropics to their pond margins or water gardens.

Despite its exotic appeal, the elephant ear is relatively easy to maintain. It thrives in warm temperatures and high humidity, preferring sunny to partially shaded spots with organically rich, moist, well-draining soil. It can tolerate a variety of soil types, from clay to loam and sandy soils, and even standing water. However, dry soil conditions are not ideal for this plant. Regular fertilization during the growing season and a little afternoon shade will keep it in top shape. To overwinter, simply lift the tubers after the first frost, clean, dry, and store them in a cool, dry location.

Good to have if you've never seen the iTEP exam, but don't rely on it to boost your scores
Format: Paperback
This book is good in that it comes with two practice tests: one in the beginning of the book, one in the end of the book. The grading rubric is helpful too. However, the actual guide part of the book, doesn't help too much with how to improve test scores. What I like least about this guide is that it won't tell you which questions you answered incorrectly on the practice exams. A good test prep guide will tell you what you answered incorrectly, and will tell you what logic to follow to get to the correct answer. In the reading passages, it would be nice to know where I can find evidence to justify the "correct" answer. In the grammar section, it would be nice to know which rule I'm violating. Any test guide should always come with some testing strategies. I.E. If this question is taking up too much time, skip it and go to the next one. This guide lacks simple strategies like that. Simple strategies like that could be useful when incorporated into this guide because there are certain sections on the exam that you can go back to previous questions, but some sections where the "back" button is disabled. Overall, if you've never seen an iTEP exam before, this book is certainly helpful in that it will give you an idea of what you will be testing for. However, this book alone won't help you achieve a score of 6. The table of contents itself will tell you there are only 86 pages of actual content covering test material. That's not enough to cover how to excel in the exam.

Don't buy it
Format: Paperback
It does not prepare for the real test. Using it is absolutely not enough to be approved with good grades. Too expensive for what it offers.
