Mid-Summer in N.E. Downunder - Caladium on show

Wonderful B....:>)

One of my favourite plants, Motinot. I love watching them rise from their dormancy.

This plant or similar reminds me of my grandma....lots of people in my neighbor gre them in containers. Bernieh, do you have the orange colored leaves? Are the orange colored leaves common in Australia. A friend in Perth wondered where she may find some in Aussie. I think she forget that I lived in South Africa.

Sixpence, you've got me there with 'orange leaves', unless you're talking about Crotons with their multi-coloured leaves.

If it's Crotons you're talking about, then they will be available almost anywhere in Oz.

Sorry Bernieh.....I am referring to Caladiums, the middle of the leaf is orange and around the edge is green.
