Translucent Rose-Red Blotches on Fern Green — A Festive Tropical Beauty

Festivia is a captivating fancy-leaf caladium with a distinctive, jewel-like quality — small to medium leaves adorned with translucent dark rose-red blotches that seem to glow against fern-green veins and margins. Very upright and bushy in habit, Festivia grows to a medium-to-tall height and tolerates a wide range of light from full shade to full sun, making it one of the most adaptable caladiums for landscapes and containers.

Plant Highlights

  • Leaf type: Fancy leaf — small to medium, very upright and bushy
  • Colors: Translucent dark rose-red blotches with fern-green veins and margin
  • Height: Medium to tall
  • Growth habit: Very upright, bushy, with small leaves
  • Light: Shade to full sun tolerant — highly adaptable
  • USDA Zones: 9–11 (lift tubers in fall in colder zones)
  • Great for: 4”–6” pots or larger, borders, landscapes, containers, all landscape areas
  • Thrives in: Heat and humidity

How to Plant Caladium Bulbs

Plant tubers flat side down, eyes facing up, 2 inches deep. Wait until soil temperature reaches 65–70°F and nights are consistently warm before planting outdoors. For de-eyed container plantings, remove primary bud before planting to increase leaf count and uniformity. Cover with 1.5–2 inches of soil and water well.

Care Tips

  • Soil: Well-draining potting mix with high organic content
  • Water: Keep evenly moist; avoid waterlogging
  • Light: Extremely adaptable — shade to full sun; provide some afternoon shade in hottest climates
  • Fertilizer: Not necessary, but occasional liquid fertilizer during the growing season supports lush growth
  • Winter storage: In zones below 9, dig tubers in fall and store in a cool, dry place until spring

Festivia delivers all-summer color in landscapes and containers alike — its jewel-like rose-red blotches on green make it a truly festive addition to any tropical planting.
