Caladium Pliage’

Caladium Pilage

A cultivar of Caladium Bicolor, this varietys foliage has green edging and veining, and white bases which can blush pink. Native to Central & South America.

• Although large, Caladium leaves are papery thin and delicate so direct light will cause searing brown spots, scorching and/or bleaching.
• Caladium grow from bulbs or tubers, meaning they will go dormant in winter and old foliage must be cut back at this time to make way for new, spring growth.
• There are 1000+ cultivars of Caladium, but each one creates a strong, architectural effect and stands out for its bright, multi-coloured patterning.
