In variegated leaved plants, such as Caladiums, the more chloro- 
phyl, or green, that the leaves possess, the proportionately less col¬ 
ors and variegation they have. We grow Caladiums with COLOR, 
which are not so easily and cheaply produced as inferior varieties 
with more GREEN in the leaves than COLOR, and COLOR is what 
Caladiums should have. 
You can then see that the more chlorophyl a plant has, as in the 
case of the Caladiums, the faster it grows. It follows that Green 
Caladiums, more or less void of color, make “shoe-sole” bulbs of great 
size, and out of shape. We cultivate and fertilize our Caladiums 
scientifically, and produce a normal size bulb of nice proportions, and 
with plently of eyes to produce for you an abundance of foliage, fol¬ 
iage with COLOR. REMEMBER, COLOR COUNTS! The color of 
your money is certainly worth the best COLOR in Caladiums.
