Product description
This is one of the cutest speckled caladiums — white leaves splattered with pink freckles like someone weaponized strawberry milk. Super bright, cheerful, and surprisingly easy during active growth.
Light
* Bright indirect light is ideal
* Can tolerate gentle morning sun
* Too much harsh sun can scorch the pale leaves
More light usually = stronger pink spotting.
Water
* Keep evenly moist while actively growing
* Don’t let it stay soggy
* Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings
Caladiums LOVE moisture but hate swamp roots.
Humidity
* Thrives in moderate to high humidity
* 60%+ keeps foliage lush and healthy
* Excellent greenhouse or patio plant in warm climates
Temperature
* Ideal temps: 70–90°F
* Very cold-sensitive
* Growth slows below 65°F
Soil
Use a loose airy mix:
* Potting soil
* Perlite
* Coco coir or peat
* Optional orchid bark for airflow
Fertilizer
* Feed every 2–3 weeks during active growth
* Balanced diluted fertilizer works great
Dormancy
Totally normal for caladiums:
* Leaves yellow and die back
* Plant “disappears”
When dormant:
* Reduce watering heavily
* Keep tuber warm and mostly dry
* Resume watering when new growth emerges
Common Problems
* Crispy edges = dry air or underwatering
* Yellow mushy stems = overwateringcold soil
* Faded color = insufficient light
* Drooping = thirsty or entering dormancy
Pro Tips
* Heat = explosive growth
* Fantastic summer patio plant
* Rotate for even growth
* Tubers store well over winter
Toxicity
* Toxic if ingested by pets or humans due to calcium oxalate crystals
