Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

Caladium is a genus of tropical plants in the Araceae family, prized for its large, decorative leaves. The Red with Green Tip variety showcases vibrant red foliage with green accents, creating a striking visual impact. Native to tropical regions, Caladium has adapted well to Indian indoor environments, making it a popular choice for homes and offices. These plants grow from tubers and produce lush, arrowhead-shaped leaves that add a touch of the tropics to any space.
Caladium thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, so it's best placed near east or north-facing windows where it receives gentle morning light. In low-light conditions, the plant may lose some color intensity. For optimal growth, maintain consistent light exposure and avoid sudden changes in light conditions. Caladium is perfect for indoor spaces like living rooms, bedrooms, or offices where it can enjoy filtered light.
Water your Caladium when the top inch of soil feels dry. These plants prefer consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. During the growing season, watering may be needed every few days, but reduce frequency during dormancy. Caladium appreciates higher humidity levels, so misting the leaves or placing the plant on a pebble tray can help. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely, as this can cause the leaves to wilt.
Caladium is toxic to pets if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation, drooling, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing if pets chew on the leaves. Keep Caladium out of reach of cats, dogs, and other curious animals. If you have pets, consider placing this plant in an area they cannot access or choose pet-safe alternatives from gardengro's collection.
