Caladiums are tropical, tuberous perennials prized for their colorful, heart-shaped foliage in shades of green, white, pink, red, and combinations of these colors. They are especially useful for adding bold color to shaded or partially shaded areas and perform well in garden beds and containers. Caladiums generally prefer partial shade and consistently moist, well-drained soil.

Care Needs:
• Light: Partial sun to shade (some varieties tolerate full sun with adequate moisture)
• Water: Keep soil consistently moist but well-drained; reduce watering as foliage naturally dies back
• Pruning: Remove yellowing or damaged leaves as needed; remove spent foliage when the plant enters dormancy
• Fertilizer: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season according to label directions
