Caladiums have been a part of Galveston landscapes since the 1800s and are still  valued today for their colorful spring-summer display. Preserving our gardening heritage is an important role of the Galveston Garden Club and we are pleased to offer some of the most highly adapted cultivars at this year’s Caladium Sale.  These selections have stood the test of time, with excellent performance for the Upper Texas Gulf Coast. In addition to their adaptability, the Garden Club has worked with our supplier to provide the larger “Mammoth” sized caladium bulbs (corms), not commonly available from retailers. This larger size promotes rapid establishment, prolific growth, and more beautiful leaves throughout the season.
