Now, here's the fun thing. My mom just had this hobby of planting different kind of plants because her co worker gave her plants and forced her to buy pots when they shop, my mom never interested in planting before that. At first she does not even like to buy those pot but she just bough it because her co worker told her so. The same co worker gave my mom different kind of plants and now she cant stop collecting plants from her friend's house whenever she visits them. The problem is, my mom just put them in a bucket with water till they die and so I have to plant them myself, it ends up being my new hobby, planting. Now I am obsess with planting adenium, making bonsai and all, but my mom loves caladium in particular. She loves to collect them with different patterns, she even bargain some to her friends that has caladium but with different patterns. She really does love them, and that is how I find your channel, I want my mom's caladium to be really healthy, propagate and to grow more leaves. You also uploads quality content vids. Love the asian humor in it as well. New subscriber here Love from Philippines 😁

[@anniet8943]

Thx , Irene for wonderful gardening tips & an enjoyable reenactment of ur caladium adoption process. So glad I found your channel.

[@leafing.around]

So happy we found you too!🥰

[@glenmaturityinbasics5430]

Wow... just found your channel when I searched Caladiums. And wow. Binging now coz I just rescued 4 Caladium bulbs with leaves from a pot full of tiny insects. Which were on the stems. And I washed them plus the plastic pot that they were in. i separated the 2 bulbs from the other 2 and putting it indoors at the moment to keep two eyes for them. And your story just encouraged me to take care of them more and praying that it will survive.

[@leafing.around]

Do give it some sun too! I find that they quite like about half day's worth of sun. Sending you green & lush vibes for your caladiums!

[@yeahivekilledthat719]

Just discovered your channel. Great video. I have quite a few caladiums because I love them so much. Thanks for sharing the story and your tips.

[@MissNejVlogs]

A friend of mine asked me to visit him in his farm, so i went there (that was yesterday).While roaming around into his farm i noticed that there's a little tiny caladium in the middle of the forest grass (idk the exact name of the grass) then when i cut out the grass i saw this cute caladium like as yours. And i was very happy to see it in the farm, because i was looking that kind of plants before and luckily i found it not just one but a plenty caladiums. I searched everywhere that's why i got one bag of loaded caladium. I will make a vlog for that for you to see it if you want. But for now I am looking for the best pots that suits to my caladium. And now im happy, i got it for free and i got to know its name because of you. Thanks

[@leafing.around]

Wow...such a happy story - thanks so much for sharing! This Florida Clown seems to be the happiest and most easy going caladium I know - enjoy yours. You should see leaves popping up from the bulb in a week or two! :)

You had a lucky day!!!

[@sawanana1]

Sweet story 😊I bought a few Caladium pots. Their new leaves get smaller and smaller (1/10 of the original size at the end). I was told to dig out bulbs when the season finishes (I don't know when though as new leaves come out continually) and let them sleep for a few months (dormant period). I tried one of the pot that I thought all died, kept some bulbs outside, then replanted them. Few weeks later, I got original size (bigger than my hand) leaves. I wonder if I should give them some level of fertilizer when I keep the bulbs in pots. Which is better: feed them or give them a break? 🧐

My caladiums had big leaves but grew very long and leggy and wouldn't stand up. They're in hibernation now but I'm wondering when they come out should they be in sun or shade? I'm waiting till nearer the rains before I get them out.
