Heart to Heart® Bold 'N Beautiful™ Caladium

Heart to Heart® ‘Bold ’N Beautiful’ is a lance-leaf caladium whose foliage changes as it develops: new leaves are pinkish orange with olive-green margins, while later leaves become mostly white with pink-orange veining. The colorful, mounded plant is suited to borders and patio containers. ## Size and placement The [Proven Winners cultivar profile](https://c1.provenwinners.com/plants/caladium/heart-heart-bold-n-beautiful-sun-and-shade-caladium-caladium-hortulanum) lists 15–20 inches tall by 10–14 inches wide, sun-or-shade exposure, and border, landscape, and container uses. These details support the existing catalog dimensions and zone 10–11 range. Brightness and leaf color may vary with light and climate. ## Identity correction The live record’s scientific name associates patent USPP30696 with ‘Burning Heart’. Proven Winners’ own protected-variety list assigns USPP30696 to ‘Bold ’N Beautiful’ and USPP27071 to ‘Burning Heart’; its cultivar profile also identifies this product as ‘Bold ’N Beautiful’. The proposal corrects the cultivar epithet and variety field to agree with the exact branded record. ## Maintenance Plant after cold weather has passed in moist, well-drained soil. Keep the soil moist during active growth without letting it become soggy; increase irrigation in sunnier sites. In cool climates, treat it as a seasonal annual or move potted plants indoors before chilling weather. Caladiums may irritate if eaten.
