These bulbs produce leaves that are characterised by their stunning blend of white, green, and variegated hues, creating a mesmerising visual display.

Caladium Aaron Bulbs are a must-have for any plant enthusiast seeking to cultivate a vibrant, tropical ambiance in their living space or garden.
Planting instructions
Caladium bulbs should be planted with the top (rounded) side facing upwards. The ideal planting depth is approximately 2 to 3 inches (5-8 cm) deep. This ensures that the bulbs are properly anchored in the soil while allowing room for them to grow.
For optimal growth and visual impact, space the Caladium bulbs approximately 12 to 18 inches (30-45 cm) apart. This spacing allows the mature plants to have enough room to develop their lush foliage without overcrowding.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Caladium plants can be susceptible to pests such as aphids, spider mites, and snails. Regularly inspect your plants for any signs of infestation. If detected, treat the affected plants with appropriate organic insecticides or introduce natural predators to control the pests. To prevent common diseases like root rot, ensure proper drainage and avoid overwatering. Good air circulation around the plants also helps prevent fungal infections.
soil
Caladiums thrive in well-draining soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A fertile soil mix enriched with organic matter, such as compost or peat moss, is recommended. Aim for a slightly acidic to neutral pH level (around 5.5 to 7) for the best results.
spot
Caladiums prefer partial shade or filtered sunlight. They thrive in locations with bright, indirect light or areas that receive a few hours of morning sun followed by dappled shade during the rest of the day. Avoid exposing them to direct, intense sunlight as it can scorch their delicate foliage.
temperature
Caladium plants thrive in warm and humid conditions, with an optimal temperature range of 70-85°F (21-29°C). They are tropical plants and do not tolerate cold temperatures. It's best to plant them outdoors once the soil has warmed up and all chances of frost have passed.
watering
Caladiums enjoy moist soil, but not overly saturated conditions. Keep the soil consistently moist throughout the growing season. Water deeply whenever the top inch (2.5 cm) of soil feels slightly dry to the touch. Aim for a balance between providing adequate hydration and preventing waterlogging.
how to harvest
Remove any spent or faded leaves to maintain the overall appearance and encourage the growth of fresh foliage.
Whether you envision a stunning flowerbed, a charming container garden, or a lively border, Caladium bulbs provide an attractive focal point and blend well effortlessly with other plants and flowers.
