How to read these values
These care values are quick reference points for indoor growing. Use them as a guide, then adjust for pot size, substrate, temperature and how quickly the substrate dries.
For more detail, read the full product description or visit our Plant Care Guides.
- Light: level and approximate lux at leaf level.
- Watering: “% dry” shows how far the substrate should dry before watering again.
- Substrate: structure, drainage, moisture retention, base material and particle size.
- Temperature: “Ideal” shows the preferred range; “Avoid below” marks the cold-stress threshold.
- Humidity: target range; steady conditions usually matter more than exact numbers.
- Growth habit: how the plant grows, such as upright, climbing, trailing, clumping or rosette-forming.
- Support: whether a stake, pole or trellis is needed, optional or unnecessary.
- Growth speed: expected pace under suitable indoor conditions; use as a guide, not a promise.
- Max size indoors: realistic long-term indoor size under good conditions.
- Toxicity & safety: irritation, toxicity or physical hazards such as spines or bristles.
- Origin & habitat: native range, hybrid background or typical habitat where relevant.
- Outdoor growing: when a potted indoor plant can be placed outside and what outdoor protection it needs.
Caladium 'Casey'
Caladium 'Casey' is a compact cultivated Caladium with heart-shaped leaves in green, pink and pale cream-white tones. Some leaves show stronger pink veining, while others carry more pale speckling or lighter patches.
Its compact growth keeps the plant contained in smaller pots. The leaves come up separately on slim leaf stalks, forming a tidy cluster above the pot.
New leaves can show a different balance of green, pink and pale markings. Once the leaves fade, keep the tuber dry until warmth and light moisture start growth again.
Like other cultivated Caladiums, 'Casey' grows best with warmth, filtered light and light, steady moisture while it has leaves. It should then be kept drier while resting.
Care
- Light: Bright filtered light keeps the leaves coloured without overheating the pot.
- Watering: Water well while the plant is in leaf, then let the upper layer begin to dry.
- Mix: Use fine bark, coco fibre, perlite or pumice. The mix should stay open and airy.
- Warmth: Keep above 18 °C, especially after shipping, potting or restart.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity helps new leaves open smoothly. Keep the centre of the plant dry between waterings.
- Feeding: Use weak fertiliser while new leaves are forming.
- Pot size: A close-fitting pot dries more evenly than an oversized one.
- Rest: When the leaves yellow and fade, reduce watering and keep the tuber dry and warm.
Common issues
- Dry brown edges: Check humidity, watering rhythm and heat from glass or radiators.
- Sudden collapse: Inspect the tuber and root area for cold wet substrate.
- Small new leaves: Check warmth, light and root stability before feeding more.
- Soft tuber: Remove excess moisture and improve airflow around the pot.
Propagation by division
Caladium 'Casey' can be propagated by tuber division. Divide only mature, firm tubers with a visible bud or growing point on each section.
Irritation warning
Keep Caladium 'Casey' out of reach of pets and children. The leaves, leaf stalks and tuber contain calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth, throat, digestive tract and skin if plant tissue is eaten or handled after damage.
Cultivar note
'Casey' is used for this compact cultivated Caladium with green, pink and pale patterned leaves.
