Caladium 'Marie Moir' perennial plant bulb ~ New Crop 2024 In Stock!

Caladiums are tropical perennials with colorful, heart-shaped leaves. They are native to tropical forests in South and Central America. Caladiums are also known by the common names elephant ear, heart of Jesus, and angel wings. 

They are a perennial bulb that dies in the winter and comes back as soon as it warms up.

 It has heart-shaped leaves that can be green and white, or white with pink polka dots. Here are some tips for caring for this plant:

Place the plant near a south-facing window within 3 feet for maximum growth, but keep it out of direct sunlight, which can burn its leaves. You can also use grow lights for 8–10 hours a day.

Water moderately when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.

The plant prefers well-draining soil with lots of organic matter, such as a blend of peat moss, perlite, and potting soil. You can add perlite or vermiculite to help with drainage.

The plant does best in high humidity, so you can use a hygrometer to monitor the air.
