Caladium Raspberry Moon Plant Features

The perfect addition to shady garden spaces, Caladium Raspberry Moon boasts an attractive mounding form that's perfect for containers or hanging baskets. Although it can tolerate 6 to 8 hours of the morning sun, this fancy-leaf variety performs best under full to partial shade. That being said, it can maintain it's fantastic color and texture all season under adequate growing conditions.

Caladium Raspberry Moon Growing Instructions

By nature, caladiums are tropical bulbs that need to be dug and stored after frost blackens their foliage in the fall. In warm, frost-free regions they can remain in the garden. Indoors, use caladiums as a cheerful houseplant. Just give it medium light and warm temperatures. Newer, more sun-tolerant caladium varieties are also available. Water caladiums whenever the surface of the soil begins to dry. They prefer moist, but not wet soil.

This plant is not intended for human or animal consumption.

Special Care

Northern gardeners will need to store caladiums over the winter. Dig the tubers up after the first light frost. Then, brush off the soil and plunge the roots into a box of peat moss and place in a cool, dark location for the winter. Occasionally sprinkle the bulbs with just a splash of water to keep them hydrated in storage. Replant in pots in the spring and set the plants outside after frost danger has passed.
