Caladiums Mix

This top-selling mixture contains caladiums with foliage colors of red, white, pink or rose. Grown specifically for their heart-shaped, ornamental foliage, caladiums offer spectacular color through the summer and can enhance almost any shady area. Plant in the shaded corners of the garden or in containers. Pot early indoors, then plant them, pot and all, outdoors in semi-shade after spring frosts. Or plant them in shady window boxes. Water well and spray leaves often during hot, dry weather. Excellent for a conservatory or warm sun porch during winter. If not in zones 10-11, dig before frost, dry and store the bulbs in a warm, dry frost-free place.
