Caladiums from Thailand
We have trialed some of these caladiums
and found them to be wonderful additions to our
gardens. Most are a bit smaller cultivars, but the
eye-catching colorations are SO different from
any others that we have found before, that we
couldn‛t resist making them available. We hope
you enjoy them as much as we have. We were told
that the anglicized names are translations of the
Thai ones in parenthesis. (better pictures on the
web that were not available at press time!!)

Caladium ‘God’s Wish’
We can’t say enough good things about how fabulous caladiums are in our part shade to full shade garden.
They are one of the most satisfactory summer bulbs we have. Their leaves even make a good backdrop for cut
flower arrangements! Just remember that they may rot if planted in COLD soil. 60° soil or warmer is best!
