🌿 Caladium ‘Spring Fling’ Care Tips

Caladium ‘Spring Fling’ is a festive, colorful variety bursting with bright pink centers, red to fuchsia veining, and lush green margins. Its cheerful foliage brings a lively, tropical vibe—perfect for adding seasonal energy to shaded garden beds, containers, or indoor plant corners.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered shade.

• Outdoors: best in partial to full shade.

• Too much direct sunlight may scorch leaves or fade vibrant colors.

💧 Watering

• Keep soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season.

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

• Ensure excess water can drain away—never let it sit soggy.

🌱 Soil

• Requires light, well-draining soil enriched with organic matter.

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

• Use containers with good drainage to avoid tuber rot.

💦 Humidity

• Loves high humidity (60–80%).

• Indoors, mist regularly or use a humidifier.

• Dry conditions may lead to browning edges or slowed growth.

🌡️ Temperature

• Thrives in 20–30°C (68–86°F).

• Keep away from temperatures below 15°C (59°F).

• Not frost-tolerant—store tubers in colder climates during winter.

🍃 Fertilizer

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

• Avoid overfeeding, which may reduce leaf color intensity.

🌿 Dormancy Care

• Spring Fling will go dormant in fall or winter.

• Allow foliage to naturally yellow and die back.

• Dig up and store tubers in a cool, dry, and dark place until spring.

• Replant when the weather warms and sprouts reappear.

🌸 Styling Tip:

Perfect for spring-themed plantings, bright tropical patios, or indoor areas needing a splash of color. Pairs well with white or green caladiums, coleus, or trailing ferns for vibrant contrast.

Celebrate the joy of the season with the vibrant charm of Caladium ‘Spring Fling’.
