Caladium Pre Order!
These tropical plants will not be ready for pick up until around June 1st (maybe the last week of May), I am only offering 15 of each variety to start off, so get in touch ASAP if you’d like me to save some for you. I have numbered each variety 1-10 on the photos, to make it easier to communicate about which variety you would like. Below I will go into detail regarding each variety of Caladium I have available, pictured 1-10. These are gorgeous in containers, as a houseplant or absolutely striking in the garden. A real eye catcher, with little to no maintenance required.
———————————————————
#1. Moonlight —
A sun tolerant caladium with medium height and medium sized leaves. Features delicate white leaves with green veining.
#2. Candidum —
A large leaved caladium with tall stems, this delicate looking yet dependable foliage plant is the perfect addition to any shade garden.
#3. Pearl Blush —
A sun tolerant, dwarf or ‘strap leaf’ caladium, with larger leaves than your standard strap leaf varieties. This plant opens up with a ‘pink flush all over the young leaves and turns white as it gains size and maturity’, still keeping the rosy pink in the heart of the plant.
#4. Florida Fantasy —
This is labeled as a medium sized caladium, with medium height and a medium leaf shape, compared to the dwarf or large leaf varieties. This variety is versatile and can handle full sun or full shade.
#5. Strawberry Star —
This is noted as a ‘vigorous producer’ of stems, and performs well in full sun or shade. Perfect for containers or beds.
#6. White Queen —
Large plants with large leaves, this striking caladium tolerates full sun.
#7. Gingerland —
This is a medium sized plant with lanced leaves and dramatic coloring. This variety can handle full sun.
#8. Carolyn Whorton —
A taller, large leaved caladium with decent sun tolerance. A striking combination of pink leaves, dark pink veins and a dark green edge.
#9. Spring Fling —
A large leaved, tall growing caladium with translucent pink foliage and dark, almost black veins and stems. Full sun tolerance.
#10. Miss Muffet —
A short, dwarf sized caladium with smaller, light lime green leaves and a unique speckled look. Prefers shade, can handle some sun.
