DETALLES

Instrucciones de cuidado

Caladium bicolor thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers warm, humid conditions. It should be kept in a consistently moist environment, but avoid waterlogging. The plant does best in moderate temperatures and high humidity. It is important to provide good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.

Suelo

Caladium bicolor prefers a well-draining, loamy soil that retains moisture but does not become waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and loam works well. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support its nutrient needs.

Fertilizante

Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to support healthy foliage growth. Reduce or stop fertilizing during the dormancy period.

Trasplante

Repot Caladium bicolor every 1-2 years or when the tubers outgrow their current pot. Repot in the early spring before new growth begins. Use fresh, well-draining soil and a pot with good drainage.

Propagación

Propagate Caladium bicolor by dividing the tubers during the dormant season. Ensure each division has at least one growing point. Plant the tubers in moist, well-draining soil and keep them warm and humid until new growth appears.

Poda

Pruning is generally not required for Caladium bicolor. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health. This can be done throughout the growing season as needed.

Toxicidad

Caladium bicolor is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation and swelling of the mouth, throat, and digestive tract. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.

Adicional

Caladium bicolor benefits from high humidity, so consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a humidity tray. During its dormancy period, reduce watering and allow the soil to dry out slightly. Resume regular care when new growth begins in the spring.
