🌿 Caladium ‘Frog in a Blender’ Care Tips

Caladium ‘Frog in a Blender’ is a bold and quirky variety with a name as wild as its appearance. It features irregular splashes and streaks of green, chartreuse, and pink, creating a chaotic, camouflaged effect—like a tropical explosion of color! This vibrant and eye-catching caladium is perfect for adding energy to shady gardens, fun container groupings, or playful indoor displays.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light indoors or partial to full shade outdoors.

• Direct sunlight, especially in the afternoon, can scorch the leaves or dull the colors.

• A spot with dappled morning light works well.

💧 Watering

• Keep soil consistently moist during the growing season.

• Water when the top 1–2 cm (½ inch) of soil is dry.

• Avoid waterlogging—ensure proper drainage to prevent root or tuber rot.

🌱 Soil

• Use a light, well-draining soil mix rich in organic matter.

• Ideal blend: peat moss or coco coir + perlite + compost.

• Containers must have drainage holes.

💦 Humidity

• Loves high humidity (60–80%).

• Mist regularly indoors or place near a humidifier to keep foliage lush.

• Dry air may lead to brown edges or slowed growth.

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal temperature: 20–30°C (68–86°F).

• Not cold-tolerant—keep away from temperatures below 15°C (59°F).

• Store tubers during winter in cooler climates.

🍃 Fertilizer

• Feed every 2–3 weeks during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer.

• Stop feeding once the plant enters dormancy.

🌿 Dormancy Care

• Will go dormant in fall/winter.

• Allow the foliage to die back naturally.

• Remove, clean, and store tubers in a cool, dark, dry location until spring.

• Replant when the weather warms and sprouts reappear.

🐸 Styling Tip:

Great for lively container mixes, whimsical garden beds, or colorful tropical groupings. Pairs well with solid green or white caladiums to emphasize its bold personality.
