FAQs

Is Caladium Bicolor safe for pets?
No - it's toxic if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep away from pets and children.

Why is my Caladium losing its leaves?
Caladiums naturally go dormant in cooler months and lose leaves - this is normal, not a sign of a dying plant.

How much light does it need?
Bright, indirect light. Direct sun can scorch and fade the leaf colours.

Does it need high humidity?
It prefers high humidity - misting or grouping with other plants helps it thrive indoors.
