    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This tall caladium sports large white leaves with striking rose veins and has a colorful history to match. Developed by a postman from Tampa in the 1930s, this caladium represents some of the key genetics from which so many other fancy leaf caladiums have been created. Snap up a little bit of history; it's a terrific garden plant! Note: when planted in acid soil or when over fertilized the white foliage of this caladium takes on a pink cast.
