I read this will yield more from a tuber but had no clue exactly what to do. Seeing your demo on locating the eyes and creating the scar bolstered my confidence to do it. The tip to wait 2 - 3 days before planting was valuable too. Thanks!
Thanks! I'm new to growing caladiums, didn't know any different and bought #2 bulbs. I thought the smaller tubers meant the leaves would be small. I have only a small strip of garden ground. Can I cut out eyes in store bought small bulbs?
My question is the the part you cut (flower that was growing ) that was taking up energy , what it would've looked like (leaves or flowers) I'm just wondering &twill they continue to grow ?
I really like the caladium plant. I want to ask, after the bulbs are matched, how much longer can it be planted. ok greetings from medan city, indonesia
I never even knew these could be outdoor plants we’ve only had them inside because out 25+ mph winds rip them apart the second we step outside same with roses sadly
Oh never mind about how flower look that's grows on the caladiums , i google image of them .. Not too attractive. Yes I think I would prefer to cut too if they grow b, but thanks again for your video. Blessings
It was difficult to determine what was up or should be pointed to dirt. I’ll have to try some more. Mine I purchased are way smaller and less easy to determine position in soil.
I have a Caladium I bought from Lowe's home improvement and I brought it home and planted it and we did have some wind . I live 20 miles outside of Houston TX and I did't know these plants where for shade... I have no shade where i live and im 100 yds from the bay .. we had a kinda strong south east wind blow for a few days , i kept turning the plant around and yesterday I saw them and several of the stalks where flopping over.. what should i do.. cut these back these that are dropping over and let the growth go to the others that are still standing ???
put A stick in ground tie string around the flowers that are leaning i cut mine back grew stronger and bigger in shade i do have some growing in full sun not as good the caladums in shade
Caladiums are winter hardy to USDA zone 9, meaning that they should be able to survive the winter outdoors. Even in these areas, though, a heavy mulching of 3 inches is the recommended winter care for caladiums to keep them from dying in the colder temperatures. In USDA zones 8 and lower, winter care for caladium bulbs involves digging them up and bringing them inside to go dormant.

Ok, never mind I just researched it. Planting the eyes top side up in the soil will be better in its growing process. I am new at growing Caladium, it will be my first time helping them come out of dormancy. Thank you for this video!
Depends on ur soil mate caladium like well airated and moist soil mix mine I use rice husk and coco peat I scope some mixture in put it in a pot throw the bulb scope some mixture again and leave it in a bright shady area
Oh goodness all I wanted to know was about the plant . Wow the dramatic narrator!!! He talking about eyes and cutting and it may not sound good yt ppl are dramatic for nothing just to be!!
been a gardner for fifty years ,but never knew by cutting the tips they would multiply lot more.

Amigo obrigada por fazer esse resumo, assim, pode aprender com a tradução. Thanks
Thank you! I am new to Caladiums and just bought the tubers/bulbs and wasn’t sure what to do. You have solved the mystery.
Just started collecting and planting, thank you for the great tip!
Wonderful advice. I’m awaiting the arrival of my Florida Boys Calidiums and will take your advice to get more leaves. Thanks!
Good to know how to encourage more shoots to grow. Down with apical dominance! 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
I've been growing caladiums for nearly 40 years and I have never been told this. I started with Xanthosomas, and Caladiums as a young boy.
Thank you your caladium info was VERY helpful !
+Carol, thanks for tuning in! We appreciate you and are glad we could help! Happy Gardening!
Como eu faço para comprar as mudas ou a batata de caladium não encontro aqui na minha região

Thanks! I'm new to growing caladiums, didn't know any different and bought #2 bulbs. I thought the smaller tubers meant the leaves would be small. I have only a small strip of garden ground. Can I cut out eyes in store bought small bulbs?
Thanks. Great information.

Great idea, I'll have to try this sometime!
Thank you for sharing

Thanks. ill try now to my caladiums.
My question is the the part you cut (flower that was growing ) that was taking up energy , what it would've looked like (leaves or flowers) I'm just wondering &twill they continue to grow ?
Fascinating!
Thank u so helpful
niice. my coworker has one in the window. can I propogate it from a stem? the stem is hanging to the side, longer than the others
Dang. Wich I had seen this last week, but I have to plant them today, so no time to wait for the healing process.
I really like the caladium plant. I want to ask, after the bulbs are matched, how much longer can it be planted. ok greetings from medan city, indonesia
Thank you !!

Like! And thank you very much! ))
Awesome 👌
I de-eyed the caladiums last year. Do I need to do it again this year?
My calla Lily bulbs are also not showing up can I scar them in these winter?
After you “scar” the plant, can you put directly in the ground?
Which is the best season to do this .thank u
Woow..
Good idea...
I like..👍👍

No matter how you plant the tuber, the green always finds the surface.
Can this be done with the large elephant ear plant
Can you do this to a Canna plant too?
Hi I was wondering if the “scar the eyes” technique works for alocasia bulbs
I have a Caladium I bought from Lowe's home improvement and I brought it home and planted it and we did have some wind . I live 20 miles outside of Houston TX and I did't know these plants where for shade... I have no shade where i live and im 100 yds from the bay .. we had a kinda strong south east wind blow for a few days , i kept turning the plant around and yesterday I saw them and several of the stalks where flopping over.. what should i do.. cut these back these that are dropping over and let the growth go to the others that are still standing ???
put A stick in ground tie string around the flowers that are leaning i cut mine back grew stronger and bigger in shade i do have some growing in full sun not as good the caladums in shade
Put inside by a sunny windowsill
It works .! For more leafs it woorks .!
When you share caladium for me sir?
I have calidrums in pots can I just put the pots in my cellar for the winter or do I have to dig them out

Will those eyes you cut out grow into another caladium
Very.good
Good to know about scolding thnx so much
So it's very simular to knicking the seeds of morning glories to encourage quicker growth?
Great tips. Can you do this on peonies as well?
No
After scaring them and letting it scab over, do you place the eyes facing up from the soil?
Ok, never mind I just researched it. Planting the eyes top side up in the soil will be better in its growing process. I am new at growing Caladium, it will be my first time helping them come out of dormancy. Thank you for this video!

🤣 answered your own Question 🤣 good luck 👍🏽
@@christinasoo3135 Let us know how it did, I'm kinda scared to scar up my caladium bulbs!
How long does it usually take to have a big tuber?
Depends on ur soil mate caladium like well airated and moist soil mix mine I use rice husk and coco peat I scope some mixture in put it in a pot throw the bulb scope some mixture again and leave it in a bright shady area
I planted my bulbs in a flower pot but my leaves are so little. Why?
Did they ever grow ok?
Great except the last part
How I wish to have that😍
Wheat buds than that wasn't enough so he adds emphasis eyes !!! This how they did the Bible. 😃Adding emphasis just because they can.
Bolla pasta recipes

Overcome aphid dominance. 🥴🥴Man what else have you overcome huh? 😏
Oh goodness all I wanted to know was about the plant . Wow the dramatic narrator!!! He talking about eyes and cutting and it may not sound good yt ppl are dramatic for nothing just to be!!
