Notes
'Dawn to Dusk' angel wings (Caladium bicolor 'Dawn to Dusk') is a bulb for borders, containers, and low maintenance beds. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy soil. It grows 12 to 24 inches tall and wide. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Give it room to spread its leaves.
Pairs well with Manjula pothos, Dragon Wing Pink begonia, and California fescue.
