Please Note: We will not be accepting commercial orders for this variety at this time.
Little Gem is a new fancy pink variety featuring a popular color pattern from our CEO, Dr. Robert Hartman. This compact caladium displays bright, semi-glossy leaves with bright rose main veins and lighter pink panels between the lateral veins. Leaves are thin and translucent with frills. Little Gem’s compact habit makes it suitable for all size containers, including baskets.
While we are ramping up production for commercial release – we will be setting some bulbs aside for marketing, you may find a few available on on retail website or offered as grower’s choice items in our finished caladium program before then.
Allow 6-8 week crop time in southern zones, recommend de-eying for pots. Minimal to no growth regulators needed as Little Gem is naturally small and compact. Crop times may be shorter for summer finishes.
