Heart to Heart™ Bottle Rocket, a stand-out fancy leaf variety with a bright red center and primary veins, white panes and green margin is a creation of our Classic CEO and breeder, Dr. Robert Hartman. Bottle Rocket is intermediate to tall in height and upright in habit. It is happy in the sun and performs well in pot sizes 6″ and up. Though slower than many fancy leaved varieties the wait is worth it. All bulbs are de-eyed and painted. Bottle Rocket is unique among caladiums with similar patterns in that the pattern retains its distinctness many yards from the planting. Bottle Rocket was a 2018 Winner at the UGA Trial Gardens as “Best of the Best” and a “People’s Choice Winner”.
You will find Bottle Rocket caladiums in both our pre-finished and finished caladium programs.
Heart to Heart™ Bottle Rocket has been selected by Proven Winners, The #1 Plant Brand, as a distinctive and proven caladium for their plant catalog. This partnership allows us at Classic to reach the much broader audience Proven Winners provides. Bottle Rocket is co-branded with Proven Winners and offered by both parties.
