| This is a caladium species, and when I say a species, I mean a plant that occurs exactly as you see in the forest, as opposed to a plant that's been bred by the hybridists. |
| The hoactzin, Opisthocomus, feeds to a great extent upon the leaves of the aroid Montrichardia or Caladium arborescens. |
| Lastly, how are we to account for the beauty of autumnal tints in woods, or coloured leaves in plants such as the caladium? |
| Colocasio has massive leaves, much larger than caladium, but always in green with purple and black veining. |
| Mrs. Senior lifts caladium, elephant ear and dahlia bulbs and stores them in the cellar, where a large ornamental banana tree also spends the cold months near a window. |
| By late January, the caladium is going to look tired and will need to rest before the tuber is repotted in the spring or planted in the garden after the soil has warmed up. |
