About This

• RICHLY COLORED FOLIAGE: Crimson Sky caladium grows decorative red leaves with pink and green accents for warm season color. Use the six dormant tubers to add a focused splash of foliage to a shaded garden bed or outdoor planter. This plant is grown chiefly for its leaves, not for a spring flower display.
• SIX TUBERS TO ARRANGE: Group the tubers in one appropriately sized container or divide them among a few smaller garden areas. In a bed, allow approximately 8–12 inches between tubers so emerging plants have room to develop. Six bulbs make a believable planting for a real home garden.
• PLANT WHEN THE SOIL WARMS: Wait until frost has passed and garden soil is warm before planting outdoors. Place each tuber with its knobby side facing up, about 2 inches deep. Cool soil can slow growth and increase the chance of rot, so this is a warm season planting project.
• FILTERED LIGHT AND MOIST SOIL: Choose a position with partial shade or bright filtered light and soil that drains well. Keep the soil evenly moist during active growth without leaving the tubers waterlogged. If growing in a patio pot, use a container with drainage holes.
• PLAN FOR WINTER IN YOUR CLIMATE: Caladiums are tender perennials. Gardeners in colder regions can lift and store tubers before frost, or enjoy them as seasonal foliage plants. The pack contains six dormant planting tubers; it does not include established plants, a container, or decorative accessories.
