Caladium 'White Wonder'

What is the plant

Caladium 'White Wonder' is an outstanding variety producing luminous white leaves, each framed in dark green, with red veining and blush; really stands out in a shaded area, and lends to show off other plants.

Caladium 'White Wonder' is a dense herbaceous annual with a mounded form. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other garden plants with finer foliage. White Wonder Caladium's attractive heart-shaped leaves remain white in color with distinctive dark green edges and tinges of red throughout the season. Neither the flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant. White Wonder Caladium will grow to be about 20 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 20 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 15 inches apart.
