Those elephant ears will die back but come back next spring if that is what you are worried about! Some varieties can be almost impossible to kill off and invasive.

These are colocasia which is a tropical variety. They’re hardy to zone 8, I’m in zone 5. I chopped them down, dug the corms and stored them in my workshop last winter. I’ll dig them tomorrow and hope for the best.
