Maintenance guide
Caladium Bicolore Black Night
Light
The Caladium bicolor 'Black Night' prefers shady spots.
Watering
It tolerates neither drought nor excess water.
Nutrition
Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer (such as 20-20-20 or 10-10-10). Also, use half the dosage recommended on the package; fertilizer that is too strong risks causing the edges to turn brown.
