Caladium Buck Plant

Caladium buck plant grows best in medium light. It doesn’t enjoy bright direct sunlight as extreme sunlight scorches its leaves. It is essential to keep it in a place where it can get high humidity. Misting the plant with water regularly and keeping the pot in a water-filled pebble tray will help in maintaining the humidity. Avoid placing the plant near heating vents as it can cause damage

Caladium buck plant grow very well in pots and planters — including hanging baskets. Soil temperatures are usually higher in containers, and caladiums appreciate that extra heat. These caladium plants are great for adding easy color to your late spring and summer plantings. Buck is very similar to John Peed.

Buck caladiums have medium-sized leaves with dark red centers, dark red veins, and a wide fern green margin. Caladium bulbs originated in the Amazon Basin, which is why they require and thrive in the warm summer day and night temperatures. Caladiums are from the Araceae family and mix well with other annuals, Hosta’s, ferns, and foliage. Shop Caladium Hortulanum at the best affordable rates from Urbano.

Soil – If the area puddles after a good rain, you might want to look elsewhere to plant your bulbs. “Mound” an area for better drainage. Keep the newly planted bulbs moist – not soggy.

Water – Watering in early am/late pm seems to make ’em happy – you don’t need to soak the ground. Again, caladiums in sun, want more water, too.
