Frequently Asked Questions

Are all Caladium cultivars the same species?

Nearly all named Caladium cultivars in cultivation are colour selections of a single species, C. bicolor, distinguished by named breeding-line pattern rather than being separate species.

Why are some Caladium cultivars pricier than others?

Cultivars are propagated by dividing the tuber rather than by seed; seed-grown plants won't reliably reproduce a specific named pattern, so newer or more intricately patterned named cultivars stay limited to slower vegetative propagation for longer before wider stock builds up.
