Caladium ‘Pink Beauty’
Caladium 'Pink Beauty' is a shade lover with beautiful arrow-shaped leaves of green with red veining and pink splatters.
Caladium is commonly referred to as angel wings due to its beautiful, arrow-shaped leaves. An eye-catcher if there ever was one, ‘Pink Beauty’ is a form with green leaves, red veins band heavily splattered in pink throughout. Expect glowing luminescence in shady areas as mass plantings, in containers and hanging baskets or as year round houseplants. Not hardy for any of us but it’s easy to save the corms over winter (at 10 degrees Celsius) and bring them out in spring. Caladium love heat. Best to start indoors and move outside once nighttime temperatures are above 15 degrees Celsius. Deer resistant.
