Heart to Heart® ‘White Wonder’ is a compact strap-leaved caladium with a clean white center and green edging. It is grown for patterned foliage rather than flowers and is suited to containers, bed edges, and small landscape groupings. Proven Winners describes it as adaptable to sun or shade, with mature dimensions of about 15–20 inches tall and 8–10 inches wide ([official White Wonder profile](https://c1.provenwinners.com/plants/caladium/heart-heart-white-wonder-sun-or-shade-caladium-caladium-hortulanum)).
## Garden use
The narrow habit makes White Wonder useful as a border or intermediate layer among broader-leaved plants. Its pale leaves stand out in shaded areas, while the breeder also lists it for sunnier sites. It is a tropical plant rated for USDA zones 10–11.
## Light, soil, and water
Give it warm growing conditions and moist, well-drained soil. In cooler regions, containers provide a way to move plants into a protected warm place; direct sun intensity varies by climate, so monitor leaves and adjust exposure if they scorch. Keep soil evenly moist while the plant is growing, but avoid cold, waterlogged conditions.
## Seasonal interest
The foliage colors the garden during the warm season. Caladiums can go dormant as temperatures fall; outside tropical climates, tubers need protection or seasonal storage rather than winter exposure in the ground.
## Maintenance
Plant after the soil and air have warmed, water regularly during active growth, and avoid letting the root zone dry out. In frost-prone areas, lift and store tubers or protect container plants before cold weather ([caladium care guidance](https://www.provenwinners.com/learn/container-gardening/vibrant-versatile-heart-heart-caladiums)).
