Q.What Time Of The Year Should Caladium Bulbs Be Planted In Zone 9?
We have shaded areas that we need some color in and thought caladiums would be good. Have we waited too late in the year to plant the bulbs?

They can be planted as soon as the soil warms up in spring. If it is already hot, you can plant them, but they will need to be watered often. They will grow in shade, but they actually prefer part sun and will bloom if given enough light.
