Caladiums have beautiful heart-shaped leaves that are pink, white or red on the inside and green around the edges. They also grow subtle white flowers. Caladiums grow rapidly and are beautiful indoors as well as in a garden.

Cut larger tubers into several pieces with a few eye buds in each. If you cut out the largest, center bud, you’ll get more leaves.
Plant the tubers outside in spring. You can plant them indoors in planters four to six weeks before the last frost is expected. If you plant them indoors, they will need transplanting. However you plant them, always plant tubers with the eyes face-up.
Place your indoor caladiums where they’ll get lots of light.
Grow caladiums in acidic soil that’s moist and well drained.
Water your caladium often, but don’t over water it.

Place your caladiums in a partially shaded location. Although they grow larger in full sun, the caladium’s coloring is best in partial shade.
Because they’re perennials, you’ll have to move your caladiums inside in the fall after their foliage yellows and begins to wilt. Here’s how to care for caladiums during the winter.
