Caladium

Large white leaves are boldly patterned with bright green veins, adding a beautiful highlight to shaded areas of the landscape. Outstanding in containers or in garden plantings with impatiens, hostas and ferns. Though generally grown as an annual, can be carried over for many years by bringing indoors before frost and growing as a houseplant over the winter. Prefers medium light and warm temperatures.
