'Garden White'

from £8.00
Pot Size:

Caladium ‘Garden White’ is a variety of white tropical shade loving perennials. They feature heart-shaped light green leaves with delicate speckling that fades into luminous white centres. These plants are low maintenance and versatile. They are bred to tolerate full sun but are ideal for area in the house that don’t receive much sunlight

The Caladium 'Garden White’ belongs to the Araceae family. This species has roots to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. They thrive in warm and humid environments  

Seasonal Dormancy

It’s important to keep in mind that caladiums go into dormancy in colder climates. Its leaves will fade and die back. This is a completely natural part of its cycle-you haven’t killed the plant! Reduce watering significantly. When the foliage dries, stop watering. Store the tuber in a cool, dark, dry place and allow the plant to rest. Resume watering in the spring and wait for new growth to emerge

    • Lighting: Thrives in bright / indirect light / partial shade    

    • Watering: Water once top inch of soil is dry-prefers to be consistently moist (try to bottom water whenever possible to avoid those ghats!)          

    • Soil: Well-draining soil (I use a cacti / a desert mix for all my plants). They despise sitting in soggy soil, add perlite or vermiculite for aeration           

    • Environment: Native to the tropics, they require high humidity and warmth (ideally above 21°C)          

    • Toxicity: Caladiums are toxic when digested, keep away from pets and small children

    • Top Tip: Caladiums love humidity. Mist your plant 2 to 3 times

  • This caladium is grown locally in Manchester
