As radiant and cheerful as the songbird for which it’s named, Caladium Cardinal is destined to make any garden brighter. This astonishing variety is a true standout, with arrow-shaped, gently wavy leaves in a rich shade of red with strongly saturated green borders. The crimson coloration trickles down the veins in various intriguing patterns, making each leaf slightly different from the next. A fantastic companion plant for tuberous Begonias, Cardinal performs beautifully in patio pots, hanging baskets, and shady garden spaces. Enjoy!
