Elegant tropical beauty for shade gardens

Caladium 'Ballet Slippers' offers remarkable benefits for landscape professionals and garden centers:

• Striking pink and green variegated foliage that creates instant visual impact
• Excellent shade tolerance while still performing in morning sun (4-6 hours)
• Compact growth habit (8-16 inches) perfect for borders and containers
• Heat-tolerant performance throughout summer when other plants may struggle
• Low-maintenance appeal with high-end aesthetic value
• Versatile application in both commercial and residential landscapes

These heart-shaped leaves maintain their vibrant coloration throughout the growing season, providing reliable color when flowering plants may be between blooms.

Planting and growing information

Plant Caladium 'Ballet Slippers' tubers when soil temperatures reach 65-70°F, typically in spring after all danger of frost has passed. Position tubers 2-3 inches deep in rich, well-draining soil, spacing them 12-18 inches apart. These tropical beauties thrive in partial to full shade in zones 10-11, but perform beautifully as seasonal plantings in cooler regions. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging and provide protection from strong winds to preserve their delicate foliage.
