I have 35 caladium species and 90% of them live under direct sun and rain. You will experience some sunburnt leaves at first but be patient and the new growth will adjust. Their colors become super vibrant especially those that have any pink or red on them. Also they become much less leggy. In my experience, the size and amount of leaves depends on the size of the bulb and not the amount of roots so try not to chop the bulbs up too tiny unless you don’t mind having tiny new shoots. Also, if you want the leaves to grow bigger faster, you will need to only keep max 2 leaves at a time until you reach your desired size. Caladiums are heavy feeders so I give them fishmeal. And yes, you should wear gloves when handling “cut up” caladium bulbs. Greetings from Malaysia

Hi, from Hong Kong. We have a flower market and very recently, they sell small baby caladiums super cheaply. HKD10 for 3 and many of us go grab some and try to grow them. It is getting popular in Taiwan a few years back but never a big popular plant in Hong Kong. Now I have about 20 at my office with indirect light and A/C on for 5 days of the week and they are growing bigger and bigger every day. I love them. They are quite easy to handle and I love the big leaves with stunning colours.

Definetly give your indoor Caladium morning or late afternoon Sun. What hurts them most is dry air in most climates. There are cheap meters indicating temperature and air moisture, get one, and adjust a humidifier to trigger if the % falls below 40%. It dosen't have to be extremely acurate. You just don't want much below 40%. Oh and above 50% in a house for long periods of time isn't good. Promotes molds and critters. You don't want that inside your house. So aim for 40%-50%. Propagation by cutting the bulb is easier at the end of the rest period, because you can cut them in sections, let the cut dry for a week, then plant them. ( Growers in the wet, warm tropics might not have a rest period though, so do like Sean if that's your case. )

I absolutely adore caladiums. You're right, they're heavy feeders. Can try giving them fishmeal fertilizer. They make the leaves grow huge! Hilo beauty leaves can grow huge! Someone I know grow them the same way as colocasia (soaked in water) and the leaves grow about as big as colocasia leaves. They're some of the caladiums that thrive under full sun, so at the same time benefit from abit more water intake. I have mine soaked in a tray of shallow water (actually all my caladiums live in a shallow tray of water because I have too many of them to water and care for daily)

You are so lucky to buy a caladium with such a big bulb that was uncut. In Malaysia , the caladiums are mostly sold with a teeny weeny size bulb and that's why it is not possible to grow the caladium into a bushy one.

They love direct light, some like full sun but to be on the safe side you can just place it where it gets direct morning or evening light. You can try to create a crutch for it to lean on. Sometimes the leaves can be too heavy for it 😅 and perhaps consider planting it slightly deeper. Also do fertilize them so they have stronger stems or leaves. I find them to be slightly heavy feeders. And they love a lot of moisture and can drink a lot of water when conditions are favorable for them. To be safe, give it very airy potting media that never dries out completely

As long as the soil is kept dry, the bulbs generally don't rot and stay firm in the soil, but amazingly, I have lightly watered the spider plants that live in the pot with them, just to prevent them from dying completely over the winter, and most of the caladiums bulbs survive to sprout again in the spring, along with the spider plants!
