Proven Winners Caladium in 4.5-in Pot

Caladium Bold 'N Beautiful has a unique color pattern among lance leaf varieties. When it first sprouts in the spring leaves are pinkish-orange with an olive green border. Later developing leaves are mostly white with pinkish-orange to white veins. Bold 'N Beautiful is intermediate in size and a great border plant for landscapes and also works well in combination or patio planters. It is sun and shade tolerant and therefore is very versatile in the landscape and has the unique habit of holding its leaves longer than most caladium varieties giving each plant a higher than average leaf count. Care: If you live in a northern climate, be careful not to plant too early in spring as temperatures below 60 degrees F will chill and stunt plants. Caladiums like to be moist at all times so avoid allowing them to dry out. Fertilize at ¼ - ½ strength every week throughout the season. Houseplant: Caladiums can also be grown as houseplants where they prefer bright light or a sunny window. Keep the temperatures above 65 degrees F for best growth and leaf size and a pebble tray or frequent misting can help to keep the humidity up around your plants. According to the ASPCA, caladiums are toxic to animals if consumed.
