Caladium Xanthosoma Lindenii

Caladium are a tuberous plant which means the leaves will die back and it will go dormant. Once the plant has died back, you can save the tubers and put them in a bag to replant when it warms up again or you can leave them in the soil.

Size

The typical size of Caladium Lindenii when they are kept indoors with the correct care is about 2-3 feet in length and width.

Your Caladium Lindenii will perform best when positioned in a spot that has bright indirect light. Signs that your Caladium is getting not enough light is the plant becoming long and leggy as it’s reaching for light. This can be resolved by changing the position of your plant to somewhere that better suits it’s light requirements.

Temperature

Caladium Lindenii prefer warmer temperature conditions and will grow best when kept in an area that maintains a temperature of 70˚F (21˚C) or higher. Keeping your Caladium Lindenii above that temperature will assist in helping tubers to grow. When keeping your plant outside of this temperate bracket for prolonged periods of time you can expect it to develop health issues or seize growing.
