I rescued one that was drooping and had some bugs in it. Allowed it to go dormant, dug out the bulbs to clean and dry and saved them in dry soil over the winter. I almost gave up as it got warmer. I gave a few spritzes of water to keep moist, not wet, as I tried to use the soil to propagate another plant. Lo and behold, it's come back beautifully! The little propagation has been relocated, but my caladium is back. All indoors, btw, and safe from any new bugs. I assume it might go dormant again in my conditions for winter since it occasionally dips below 60 even indoors and gets very dry. Still worth it for this beauty.
Woohoo! Success! Love it!
Thank you for sharing.
Green Cheers!
I have a caladium just like that it has gone dormant twice over the last three years... I left it in my laundry room and completely ignored it... in the early spring it always comes back... it is more beautiful every year.. do not worry when it goes dormant... it will come back
Hi Suzanne,
Good to know! Thank you for your support and information!
Can't wait for the Spring to arrive 🌱 🤞
Do you need to cut the leaves all the way down if it does go doormat?
I have three caladiums and they are now domesticated. I live in Houston, TX in Zone 9. Humidity and heat isn't a problem and my leaves get lots of light. I have the Miss Muffet version which isn't too fond of much light as its color fades. I have White Christmas and White Fangs varieties as well and they are growing well!
This is great news! Gives me hope! Thank you 🌱
Perfect timing! I JUST bought this plant today at a plant sale. I plan to enjoy it indoors and grow alongside my arrow head vine plant
Sounds great! Green Luck, and thank you for watching 🌱
Good morning ... Trying my hand at Caladiums for the first time this year ... So far, so good ... It did drop a few leaves at the beginning ... It's doing better now ... If I'm successful, I will get a few more. Such beautiful plants ... Thank you for posting ... Have a great day ...
Woohoo! I am with you on this one - if my plant will thrive, I probably get more too. So far it’s doing great and loves its new house (planter) 🌱🌱🌱 😀
Hi, Pierre! How are your Caladiums? Mine has lost lots of leaves ..... Hope it's just getting ready to go dormant :)
@@Mycityplants Hi Julia!!!
The Caladiums are going dormant it seems ... Just one leaf standing; The other two that were left are dwindling ...
So! I'm waiting for the last one to drop, then; I am going to cut the stems to ground level and leave the tubercules dry for the winter until next Spring ...
That is what I read about wintering Caladiums ... Also: Keeping my fingers crossed that this works ... Have a great evening Julia ... See you in your next video ... ✌️🙂
Hi Pierre,
Thank you. Mine is loosing leaves too. This makes me feel better knowing that it is just a part of dormant period:))
🤞 🌱
Beautiful plant. And that hair cut is super cute girl 👌🏽
Thank you! 🤗
Just got a moonlight. Love caladiums, hoping I can keep it happy inside! Thank you for the tips and care!
Hi Deana,
Green Luck! 🌱
Thank you for watching.
Hi edagdwg love THIS plant a forever loving fan Linda j.peace
THANK YOU! May your plants grow happy and healthy!
Muchas gracias, me fue de mucha utilidad, agradecida por traducirlo al español
Thank you for the video, it is very helpful to see a video about how to take care of these beautiful plants :). The video is great, :D
Hi Brigitta,
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching 🪴
Hai what a beautiful caladium...😄😄😄
Thank you 🌱
Hello! I was wondering if you have a link for the glass plant stake? It’s so pretty! Thank you!!
Hi Meagan,
I am glad you have noticed this elegant piece.
These were limited edition by a french designer and got them as gift many years ago.
I wish he made more ....
Thank you for watching 🌱
Good luck!!!
These guys remind me of the Syngonium family. Are they related?
I love your videos ❤️
Dear Regina,
Thank you! I need it:) This guy is being very temperamental but I am not giving up yet:)
I love Syngoniums - such an easy plant to grow.
Syngonium is very similar to Caladium but not the same family 🌱
I just bought one thinking it was a syngonium. They are so pretty.
😊 Thank you for watching 🌱
Very beautiful plant 🌵🌵🌵🌵
Thank you for watching 🌱
beautiful plants !!
Thank you, Stacey! 🌱
Where did you buy the clear support? Very cool!
😎
I got it as a gift many many many years ago. It was made by some French artist. The set had few of these in different sizes. I use them all and love it! 💚
I did try to find something similar a while back but did not succeed. I should may be organize another “cool plant accessories” hunt. Will share if I find something 😀🌱
@@Mycityplants Very cool! Thanks!
😎
I’m wondering, I just bought one from a garden center. It’s labeled as an annual. Will it come back after dormancy if kept indoors?
Hi!
Yes, the Caladium should come back after the dormancy.
I have kept it thriving and growing until the dormancy but, unfortunately, I have not succeeded bringing back this plant after - due to the lack of experience in growing annuals at home :(
May your plants grow happy and healthy!
I have a couple of lechuza clasico LS 35 potted plants and have noticed some roots growing out of the bottom and reaching for the water in reservoir..... are those roots at risk of root rot? should I cut them back? Thanks for your help!
Hi! I hope you like these planters!
There is no risk of root rot. Yes, you can prune back the roots. This is another reason why the Classico model is great! Green Luck! 🌱
P.S. do not refill the reservoir as soon as it is empty. Remember to allow the potting mix to dry!!!
This Vid was two years ago. How did it go with the Caladium, did it go dormant? In the tropics where I live this plant can go dormant twice, sometimes three times a year. Most often it starts growing at the beginning of the rainy season (summer), however when it gets very hot and dry later in the growing season which can happen during a dry extremely hot "tropical depression" for a few weeks (weather phenomenon) it goes dormant, then it comes back when the rains start up again then goes dormant in the cool or dry season when the temps are warm but there is little rain. It's quite sensitive to weather patterns so IMO not a terribly reliable foliage plant as such but a pleasant surprise to see happening when it decides that the conditions are right. Unfortunately if you water it when it goes dormant it can rot, watering it wont stop the dormancy either, seems to be more to do with the heat, so when dormancy is triggered best to leave it alone and completely dry for a few weeks or month, I'm not terribly sure.
Hi!
Thank you for sharing + a very useful info.
Unfortunately, I have not succeeded with growing this beautiful Calladium in my apartment. :(
I don't think the NYC environment + being indoors is what this plant likes :)
Green Cheers! 🌱
Very informative video. Thanks for sharing.
What are those beautiful green plants on your wall behind you? Did you make a video of making those? Absolutely unique and stunning 😍
Hi Nelly,
I love my wall frames! They are self-watering too!
You need 6 x 4" plants for each frame.
Here the video about my frames: bit.ly/36waVdW
Here is the video about how to install and use: bit.ly/33lEDQm
***One correction to the watering instructions in this video:
FILL UP THE RESERVOIR UNTILL THE YELLOW WATER LEVEL INDICATOR IS ALL THE WAY UP when the potting mix is dry enough, and plants are ready for a drink!
We sell these here: mycityplants.com/collections/wall-planters/products/live-frame-without-plants.
Thank you for watching 🌱
I have the exact same caladium..but mine has completely flopped..all the stems have drooped to the floor...please update us on your beautiful plant..how is it doing now...l also have an apartment with only north facing windows so am hoping tosave my plant as its so heart breakinga to loose it after i have strughled to find a caladium in Abu Dhabi for so long
Hi! I am still learning the Caladium language. :)
Overall, the plant is doing well. I do have a few drooping stems too. I feel that it is related to watering.
I know it does not like it's soil to get dry and needs consistent watering but, at the same time, I have to be careful not to overwater it. 🤔
I am still working on establishing the proper frequency :)
Now I test the soil weekly and water it when the soil is dry just 2-3” deep.
I have North-East exposure. At the moment, watering frequency is once every 10-14 days or so.
Plants that get lots of bright light need to be watered more often.
The amount of water per watering should be enough to reach the lower roots.
***Do not allow the plant to sit in water. A saucer should be free of access water.
Plant needs good drainage and a fair amount of soil around the roots.
The plant should be potted in a larger than original container pot - WITH DRAINAGE :)
North exposure might be not sufficient for these guys. They need bright indirect light. Adding a grow light will help! 🤞
If you figure out why your plant is droopy, please let me know. Together we might nail the care routine for our Caladiums better 😃🌱
@@Mycityplants Excellent tips!
Thank you 🌱
Im from the phils. How i wish to have those varieties of caladium 😍
Hi Clair,
Thank you for watching. From the Philippines? I found this online source in the Philippines. Hope you can get your dream plants here: www.carousell.ph/q/caladiums/?
Green Luck!
I love it beautiful
Thank you! 😊
@@Mycityplants welcome 😊
What are the name of the rocks that you put in the planter before you put the soil in?
Hi! This is special subtract that comes with the Lechuza self-watering planters. It is called Pon. 🌱
I just got one about a month ago, it’s had a lot of new growth BUT, it’s leaves drop and end up the stem ends up breaking. The leaves that fall over stems go black compared to the rest that are brown... :( I don’t know what’s happening
Hi Sammy,
I feel your pain. Unfortunately, my Caladium experience is not in the book of my success stories :(
I hope others can offer some tips here for you.
Green Luck 🌱
I’m dealing with similar issues. I’m experimenting to see where they might be best in my house -light wise- . Seeing the leaves fall down is so heart breaking!!
Can be frustrating. I hope you will find the best way to grow theses awesome plants. Green luck! 🌱
Hey my plant is doing the same, have you found anything that helps?
@@potatolard9643 no, it ended up dying 😭💔
Thanks!
Dear Elizabeth,
Thank you for watching and for your $thanks. 🙏
Your support is very much appreciated 🌱
Hi! Any updates on how these beauties are growing indoors? Did they go dormant?
Hi! Yeah.... they went dormant on me :) Now I have to wait for the late spring to see the new leaves pop up 🌱 😀
I have this plant and it when dormant last winter, now its early May, and its coming back to life.
I am so jealous 😀
My plant did not come back, and when I tried to check the root system to make sure they are in a good shape, to my surprise I did not find any...
The only logical explanation I have is that the roots have dried out and dissolved as the plant was not kept in a cool enough space :(
I have failed but I have learned 😀
May your plants grow happy and healthy 🌱
@@Mycityplants Thank You, my plant looked liked it was dried out and dying, I put it in a pail and filled water half way and left overnight and 2 weeks later it came out beautifully, also I put plant food in it
It is so exciting, right? 👍🌱
This is some bougie gardening.
😀🌱
Lmaooo
Hi
My caladium is showing 2 notches on one stem, what is it?🤷🏽♀️.
New points are still coming and growing but 2 of these double notch stem is growing in size but no leaves are popping out. Any advice what it’s indicating. Thanks
Hi Laila,
Unfortunately, I do not have much knowledge about Caladium plants. This plant was my first. I hope someone, who has an answer to your questions, will comment here.

Thank you for watching 🌱
What is the name of this caladium？ is caladium snow queen? Thanks!
Hi! Thank you for watching! This is Caladium 'Florida Fantasy'.
Green Cheers!
Where did you get the bulbs? They are really big leaves
Hi Eric,
I got this plant already with leaves. When in season, you may find these almost in any garden shop. Thank you for watching 🌱
Howdy! Did they go dormant?
Hi! It is early to say. Not too cold yet but it looks like it might be in the process of going dormant... The plant lost bunch of leaves :)
Hi! I have a caladium it’s getting sufficient water and light and the soil is in perfect condition (the water goes thru the soil fast) but it is drooping :( do you know why??
Hi Jessica,
I am very new to the world of Caladium plants. My plant went dormant and lost all its leaves. :)
Here are is the article that might be helpful: www.hunker.com/12623081/caladium-leaves-are-drooping
Green Luck &Thank you for watching! 🌱
@@Mycityplants thank you very much!!
You are welcome! 🌱
I wondered why you didn’t use Pon alone for this plant?
Hi Susan,
No reason. I pot some plants in Pon and some in potting mix.
Large plants are all potted in potting mix as Pon is very heavy, and one will have a really hard time to move around a large plant potted in Pon 😀
Thank you for watching 🌱
@@Mycityplants good point. Hadn’t thought about the weight. Thank you.
Very good..
Thank you for watching 🌱
Do a video on coral vine plant
Hi Sai,
