My caladiums are blooming this year. It's the first time in many years of growing caladiums that it's happened.
I would like to know what causes them to bloom. Maybe more heat this year than most years? Maybe more rain during June?
I have 6 different varieties, and 4 of them are blooming. They came from two different sources, Bill and Ednies.
Here's a pic showing the spathy blooms.
And info on why the caladiums bloom sometimes and sometimes don't would be appreciated. I will pick off most of the blooms, anyway to conserve the bulbs energy.
Thanks
