Description
Peppered with pink and effortlessly pretty sums up Caladium 'Florida Elise'. This variety’s lush green leaves are jazzed-up with a random smattering of curiously semi-translucent pink markings, so every leaf which unfurls is totally unique! In the plant world, pink and green are a classy combo. Here it is, all in one gorgeous bundle of heart-shaped leaves, ready to splash a little subtle colour into your home, workspace of shaded urban jungle!
Caladiums make fantastic house plants, they can also be grown outside once the weather is fairly consistently warm. These tropical treasures are best started off indoors and often take a while to come out of dormancy, but given a cosy spot in your home with an average room temperature, they will be happy. After a few months, just when you think that nothing is happening, up pops leaf after leaf, and they’re away!
