After I found out that I was starving the white caladium bulbs for light where I had put them I moved them to a window. And much to my suprise I saw 5 tips poking out of the soil. I'm so glad I didn't kill them. It's only been about 3 weeks and the package said between 4 and 6 weeks for them to sprout so I have my hopes. I've never tried this type of plant before so I am crossing my finger, toes and eyes.

The only caladium plants that I have grown are those that are a varigated pink & green when I lived in VA. I grew them outside in the shade, not inside. There is enough humidity in VA that they should do well inside. I would be interested in knowing how they come along now that buds have shown. Good luck.

You bet Jane,

I love to talk about my plants. I'm a beginner gardener so everything is new to me and very exciting. Thank you for your post.

TK, I feel like a beginner gardener since I haven't done serious gardening for about 12 years. My husband and I retired out of VA in '94, and were RV fulltimers for 10 years before settling down "roots" in TX. Watching my plants grow and thrive is one of my favorite things wink Jane
