So right, Ann. Burnweed, not Tassel flower! Sorry, rockladyJean.
Qwilter Jean, what a shame about your Caladiums! I do pull the ones in pots under the overhang after they're dying down, so they don't get too wet through the winter. Dry and cool is great storage conditions for those bulbs.
That being said, I do have a whole bunch in the ground, and they come back year after year, probably because the soil is less water retentive than potting soil. I planted this row last summer, and they looked gorgeous until December. Now, well we'll see how they came through the winter pretty soon now!
These white ones have been coming back year after year for at least 5 years, but do a lot better if I remember to give them a little fertilizer.
