Thank you! I always planted them in ground...until Texas started experiencing water shortages. It's much easier to control watering when they are in pots. This year I will plant a border on one side of the garden, and the rest will go into pots. I can move the pots around to follow the shade! In your area, I'm sure they would do well in ground if you were inclined! Hanging baskets of caladiums do well here also.
I would recommend Caladiums 4 Less for the best prices. He is a member here and posts on the classifieds forum. I'm a little late getting started this year.
