おもしろい事実

Caladiums are often called 'elephant ears' or 'angel wings' because of their beautiful leaf shapes!

Even though they have small flowers, people grow Caladiums just for their amazing, colorful leaves!

When winter comes, Caladiums 'sleep' by having their leaves die back, waiting as a bulb to sprout again!

Wild Caladiums come from the Amazon rainforest, where they brighten up the shaded jungle floor!
