After last year's Devastating crop(The Worst in Caladium History), we're back!!
We have some really nice bulbs available this year!!
Caladiums are super easy to grow. You just have to be patient with them, they're not magic beans that sprout in 2-3 days. With caladiums, it all comes down to ONE THING, the soil temperature!!!
The warmer the soil is the better they'll do. Early in the season it's the night time temps that just keep the soil too cool for the caladiums to germinate. Once that soil gets to the right temperature though, watch out because you'll be seeing Beautiful leaves in No Time!!
Caladiums like to be planted about an 1 1/2 - 2 inches deep in light potting mix. I personally use Miracle Grow as I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for, even Dirt!!
The picture is my backyard a few years ago. It was a lot of work but well worth it!!
If anyone has ANY questions regarding caladiums, please Do Not hesitate to email me at: [email protected]
That's the best way to communicate with me!!

Happy Gardening!!
