Will my elephant ear plants recover?
I recently planted some elephant ear plants in large planters. When I recieved the plants, they appeared healthy and each had two or three leaves on them. The day after I planted them we had extremely high winds, and I came home to find that the leaf stems had been snapped because of them. I cut the damaged leaves off at the break. Is there any hope that they will recover, and if so is there anything that I can do to help speed it along aside from keeping them watered and sunny?

They will be fine and will be sending up new leaves real soon. You don't have to do anything special for them. They are very hardy.

If its not dead yet, you need to bring it inside. Since it has been so cold, leave it in the garage for a few days and then bring it into the house. You don;t want to bring it in right away as the sudden change in temperature would shock it. Elephant ears are not hardy in New York and will die if left outside over the winter.
