Glad y'all are as enthused as I am. I'm trying a few new varieties this year too. I'm sure last year that anyone giving directions in our neighborhood said "go past the house with all the caladiums out front and take a left..." LOL!

To illustrate how well they do in sun (as well as shade) I'm attaching a photo of one of my daylilies surrounded by pots of caladiums, all in full sun, on the patio last year. Having grown caladiums in the past that literally crisped and fried if they got much sun, this was a lovely surprise. I know this isn't unique to BiLL's offerings, more just caladiums in general today, but still, it's so nice that you can put them almost anywhere!
