🌤 Care Requirements

Need Details
Light Bright, indirect light or dappled shade. Direct sun can scorch the leaves.
Watering Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Let the topsoil dry slightly between waterings.
Soil Light, well-draining mix rich in organic matter. Peat + perlite or coco coir works well.
Temperature Warm climate plant; ideal 20–30°C (68–86°F). Not frost-tolerant.
Humidity Loves high humidity (>50%). Mist or use pebble trays indoors.
Feeding Use a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–3 weeks during the growing season (spring–summer).

🪴 Growth & Dormancy

  • Active Season: Spring through late summer.

  • Dormancy: In cooler climates, Caladiums go dormant in winter. Foliage dies back—stop watering, lift and store tubers in a dry, cool place until spring.

  • Height: Typically grows 12–18 inches (30–45 cm) tall.

  • Spacing: About 10–12 inches (25–30 cm) apart if planting in beds.


🔁 Propagation

  • By tuber division: Gently separate the bulbs during repotting or dormancy, ensuring each piece has at least one growth eye.
