Price per 1 x tuber.
Caladium ‘Red Flash’ makes beautiful ‘elephant ear’ foliage with bright reddish / pink veining and pale pink markings overlaying a deep green.
Caladium make wonderful tropical style foliage plants for an exotic garden. The tubers are best started into growth before planting. Plant them shallow in a good quality compost. A bit of warmth in a greenhouse or heated propagator will encourage them to shoot.
Grow in a warm and sheltered spot, ensuring that they get plenty of water during their growing season. Not hardy, so either treat them as summer bedding, or overwinter frost free.
