A mixed assortment offers a range of leaf patterns in shades of red, pink, white, and green, making it a simple way to add bold texture and season-long visual interest to warm-weather plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese bulbs are typically started indoors before the last expected frost, then moved outdoors once the soil has warmed, or planted directly into garden beds in frost-free conditions. The foliage works well in mass plantings, mixed shade borders, patio pots, and hanging baskets, and the leaves can also be cut for fresh arrangements. Plants favor consistent moisture and warm temperatures, dying back naturally at the end of the season, after which the bulbs can be lifted and stored in frost-free areas for replanting the following year.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Caladium bicolor\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Mixed\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Tropical perennial bulb\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright clumping foliage, 12-24 inches tall\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Partial shade to full shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Rich, well-drained, evenly moist\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 9-11 outdoors; grown as an annual or lifted in cooler zones\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost, or plant outdoors after soil warms\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 8-12 inches apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Keep soil warm and consistently moist during active growth; foliage dies back at season's end\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67708834578742,"sku":"ANNISA-393","price":56.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7991148843_nc9r.jpg?v=1791865599","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/10-caladium-bulbs-mixed-varieties-colorful-foliage-shade-garden-tropical-potted-plant","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
