Indoor Care Information:

• Light: Place in a warm location with bright, indirect light (such as a sunny windowsill or sunroom), avoiding harsh direct sun that can scorch the leaves.

• Temperature: Keep indoor temperatures above 65°F (18°C); they prefer warmth above 60°F.

• Water & Humidity: Maintain consistent, even moisture in well-drained soil and avoid letting them dry out completely. Increase ambient humidity using a pebble tray, humidifier, or frequent misting.

• Dormancy: Caladiums are tropical tubers that naturally enter a resting/dormancy phase after several months. When the leaves begin to die back, reduce and stop watering, let the plant rest, and resume watering once new spring growth appears.

• Safety Note: Caladiums are toxic if ingested, so keep them out of reach of curious pets and children.
