Caladium Esculentum (ctephant’s Ear) 
This giant plant grows 6 to 10 feet high and bears immense, light 
green leaves 3 to 4 feet long and 2% feet wide. It is very effective 
in beds and borders and is used extensively in public parks. Plant them 
outside when the ground is warm in the spring or start them indoors 
early and transplant outside. The bulbs will not stand freezing so dig 
in the fall and bring indoors.

Fancy-Leaved Caladiums

growing or even for outdoor beds in shady spots. Grow the same as 
Tuberous-rooted Begonias. The bulbs will not stand freezing so dig in 
the fall and bring indoors.

Calla Elliottiana 
The best of the Yellow Callas. The foliage is dark green, with a 
number of translucent creamy white spots, which add much to its 
beauty. Planted in the open border in a dormant condition when 
danger from frost is over in spring, this Calla will flower during the 
summer. When tops are killed by frost in the autumn, dig and store 
through the winter as you would potatoes.
