ANGEL WINGS

Planting the Caladium Carolyn Whorton will leave you with an abundance of spectacular pink and green leaves, perfect for adding a pop of colour to any garden. They like to be planted in habitats that provide full to partial shade and have average watering needs. A loamy soil is the preferred type to plant them in; the soil should contain pH levels that fall between neutral and acidic. A great showy plant, they are also deer resistant! Planted in the late spring to early summer, you can expect the plant to be in bloom between the middle and the end of summer.

Carolyn Whorton

"I can not say yet. It has been in the garden for about a month but I don’t see anything yet."

Laurie C. (5/5)

Excellent quality

"Excellent quality! I wanted these as indoor plants. All grew and look really healthy. I'll order them again and try to plant them outside next year."

Cristina I. (5/5)

No Signs of Life

"Followed planting instructions and it has been a month and a half and still nothing has sprouted it is kept in a warm greenhouse."

Terry R. (2/5)

Excellent

"Caladiums are doing phenomenal and are so beautiful! I got one of each available variety, including Carolyn Whorton. I was worried the first month or so after first potting in April (even thought the tubers were dead at one point), but when they finally showed some growth I would be blown away by these plants. They are now the size of some hostas (mid-July), super healthy and colorful. I didn't do anything special to the tubers initially either, like remove any "eyes". Just wow, is all I have left to say! Thank you so much Wildwood! :)))"
