🌿 Product Description

Fancy Leaf Caladium Seeds, also known as Decorative Caladium, Heart of the Tropics, or Bold Leaf Caladium, produce stunning tropical foliage with large, heart- or arrow-shaped leaves in a dazzling array of colors — from deep red and vivid pink to white, green, and speckled patterns.

These eye-catching ornamental plants are perfect for brightening up shady gardens, patios, or indoor containers. Whether planted in flower beds or decorative pots, Fancy Leaf Caladiums add bold texture and a vibrant pop of color to any green space. Their show-stopping foliage makes them a favorite for gardeners looking to create dramatic tropical-style displays.

☀️ Growth Characteristics

• Light Requirements: 🌤️ Thrives in partial shade to filtered sunlight. Too much direct sun may scorch the delicate leaves.

• Temperature Range: 🌡️ Best grown in 18–30°C (65–86°F). Not frost-tolerant — bring indoors if temperatures drop below 10°C (50°F).

• Soil Type: 🌱 Prefers well-draining, organic-rich soil (pH 5.5–6.5). Amend heavy soils with compost or peat moss.

• Watering Needs: 💧 Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Caladiums dislike standing water.

• Growth Habit: 🌿 Grows 12–24 inches tall and spreads up to 18 inches wide. Ideal for borders, containers, or shaded landscapes.

🌱 Planting & Care Guide

1. Sow Indoors or Outdoors: Start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost or sow outdoors after soil warms.

2. Germination Time: 14–28 days in warm, moist soil (ideal temp: 22–28°C / 72–82°F).

3. Transplanting Tips: Once sprouted, move to larger pots or a partially shaded outdoor area.

4. Feeding: Apply a balanced fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the active growing season.

5. Overwintering: In cooler zones, lift and store tubers indoors after foliage dies back in fall.
