How Long Does It Take for Caladiums to Grow

Regardless of which you choose, caladium bulbs can take between two and 12 weeks to germinate. Because they love hot weather, the warmer the ground and air temperature when you plant, the faster they will grow.

Are caladiums slow growing?

Caladiums are notoriously slow to get started when first planted. They are often grown for seasonal color in displays at botanic gardens, malls and other commercial buildings for the Christmas season. All that makes them seem like good candidates for growing as houseplants.

Are caladiums easy to grow?

Growing caladiums is easy with proper caladium care. These tropical-like plants are commonly grown for their multi-colored foliage, which may be green, white, red, or pink. Caladiums can be grown in containers or clumped together within beds and borders.
