Prized for its highly decorative leaves, Caladium White Christmas’ (Angel Wings) is a tuberous perennial with lush, heart-shaped, silvery white leaves adorned with striking dark green veins and edges. Inconspicuous, calla-type flowers appear in summer, but they are usually hidden by the leaves. Glowing in full shade, this luminous foliage plant is terrific to add color and drama to shady borders and containers. It also makes an excellent houseplant.
