Before my wondering eyes the straggly but still stalwart pansies were ripped from their root systems and with lightning moves caladium bulbs took their place. |
To winter over a caladium, put the tuber into storage immediately or pot up the whole plant and place it in a brightly lighted windowsill. |
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. |
Now the smell of Blue Mountain coffee and the reggae sound of Bob Marley drift through the brightly colored building and out over a lush array of cannas, castor beans, caladium, passion flower vines and hibiscus. |
