Caladium ‘Water’s Edge’ is a 2016 patented fancy-leaved introduction from our Classic CEO and breeder, Dr. Robert Hartman. . The caladium variety Aaron has been a long time favorite due to its sun tolerance and therefore usefulness in the landscape. Over the past 4-5 years production of Aaron has dropped due to its susceptibility to bacterial leaf spot. Water’s Edge is similar to Aaron in appearance and sun tolerance but it less susceptible to bacterial leaf spot. When used in pots Water’s Edge has a better habit due to increased branching. In a number of trials Water’s Edge had a shorter pot crop time when compared to Aaron. Water’s Edge is useful in pots, patio planters and the landscape.
You will find Water’s Edge caladiums in both our pre-finished and finished caladium programs.
Allow 6-8 week crop time in southern zones, recommend de-eying for pots.
Recommended bulbs per pot: 6″ (2.5qt) pots: 2-#1 bulbs, or 4-#2 bulbs 8″ (1.75 Gal) pots: 4-#1, or 8-#2 bulbs 12″ pot: 5-#1 or 10-#2 bulbs
