Lin, the caladiums were fine. It rained all day, but cleared right before their party. They placed the pots in the urns and lined the walk with bromeliad pots. The night temp outside was about 48. They had heaters, so a lot of people were outside.
We went over the next day and picked up the pots. They all looked like when we took them the day before. We were supposed to have a county wide freeze Sunday night, so I took them all out of the pots and cut the foliage away from the bulbs. I'm going to see if they will sprout again in the spring.

Today was cool and sunny. Tomorrow brings rain. And the weekend will be in the high 70s! Crazy weather...but no snow, thank goodness!

Cheryl, do some of your In ground caladiums come back? I've had them appear in pots, but not in ground.
