How to Plant Caladiums in a Container

  • Start with a large planter, at least 18 inches wide and deep, with drainage holes in the bottom.
  • Pour in an inch-thick layer of small rocks.
  • Add an inch or two of pine bark mulch or other well-draining filler material.
  • Pour in the potting mix up to within 2 inches of the rim of the container.
  1. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
  2. Soil: Plant in well-draining, rich, and slightly acidic soil. A mix with peat moss or coconut coir works well.
  3. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry.
  4. Humidity: Caladiums thrive in high humidity. Increase humidity by misting the leaves or placing the pot on a tray filled with water and pebbles.
  5. Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
  6. Pruning: Trim yellow or damaged leaves to encourage new growth. Remove flowers as they appear, as Caladiums are grown for their foliage.
