Seed Type Bulb
Also known as Angel Wings

The Fancy Leaf variety of Caladiums are colorful, textural plants that can be grown inside or outside in beds, containers, or even in a water garden. As long as they’re brought inside before cold weather hits, they’ll grow year-round and can be replanted outdoors again after the temperature gets up to 60 degrees.
