Hello Elaine,
I am by far not an expert on Caladiums so take what I have to say with a grain of salt so to speak. My experience with the Caladiums I have is they like morning sun, & partial shade for the rest of the day. I have seen no variety difference in this regimen. The plants I have now are receiving full sun from about 6 AM (sunrise) until a little after noon when the angle changes so the building is blocking the sun. I am in Tumaco Colombia, so the rest of the conditions are optimum, humidity, temperature, & everything else.
I would upload photos of my Caladiums, but they were victims of the robbery/vandalism that happened here last week. I have already replaced many, but they are not yet showing the excellent growth that I was enjoying with them before. Later this week I will take photos of the plants as well as the location I have them, & my other plants.
