Description

Caladium 'Salsa' brings a vibrant splash of colour that dances its way into any garden space. Each heart-shaped leaf is a red canvas, edged with deep emerald green, giving Caladium 'Salsa' the appearance of a hand-painted masterpiece. The rich contrast between the fiery centre and the dark border ensures that this variety stands out whether nestled among softer foliage or showcased in a decorative container. Its bold, sculptural leaves catch the light beautifully, adding movement and flair to shady spots or brightening up a partially sunlit patio.

Beyond its eye-catching foliage, Caladium 'Salsa' is remarkably versatile. The rosettes of glossy leaves thrive in moist, well-draining soil, making it an ideal candidate for both borders and potted displays. Its upright, arching growth habit ensures that Caladium 'Salsa' maintains its structured, elegant look, while the vivid tones continue to captivate throughout the growing season. Perfect for adding a tropical feel or injecting a pop of colour into muted corners, Caladium 'Salsa' combines drama and sophistication effortlessly. Whether you’re designing a bold planting scheme or simply want a statement piece for a container, Caladium 'Salsa' offers a reliable, low-maintenance flourish that delights all season long.
