Colorful Shade-Loving Caladium White Queen
Colorful Shade-Loving Caladium White Queen
Brighten shaded areas with this eye-catching caladium. Caladium White Queen features large, white, heart-shaped leaves with green margins and bright red veining. Whether edging a shaded walkway or in mixed container plantings, this colorful shade-loving plant is sure to stand out. Because they are tender plants that don't handle the cold, many gardeners plant them in pots indoors and then move them outdoors after the danger of spring frost has passed. They also add color and charm to a conservatory or warm sun porch during winter. If not in zones 10-11, dig before frost, dry and store the bulbs in a warm, dry frost-free place.

Yes, I bought Caladiums and other products from KVB
I bought several varieties of Caladiums in March 2019. They all came up robustly and beautiful. I cut them back at the end of the season and now in April 2020 they are starting to come back in. I am in Zone 9 so, I could let them remain in the containers but only relied upon rain to re-water them. Kept them away from the sprinklers. I will enjoy them again this year.

- Asked by Sal
- Verified Reply - AngelaYou can sprinkle hot chili pepper around the area. Cover the top of the ground with chicken wire to keep them from digging them up. If you have voles, then you will need a basket. Our sister company offers bulb baskets. https://www.brecks.com/product/bulb-basketWas this answer helpful to you
