A spring must-have! The Caladium stands out for the coloring and delicacy of its foliage. The 'Splash of Wine' variety has pink leaves speckled with red and green veins. In order to flourish, it requires high ambient humidity and bright, indirect light. For its dormant period, it is recommended to cut back the leaves in the fall and install it in a dark room in winter. In spring, you can start watering it again and it will come back to dazzle you.
