I've gone too far to turn back now.

Starting with the view from my kitchen. I've filled every shady and semi-shady spot in my yard with Caladiums. It wasn't supposed to get out of hand like this! I bought 50 each of Florida Moonlight jumbo and Frannie Munson jumbo from Florida Boys in the spring. I told myself i was only sticking to white and pink.

Well, we had some late cool nights in April and I attempted to start them in my garage. Then I put them in beds and containers and by early June nothing was happening. I panicked and locally bought tons of Berries and Burgundy, Florida Sweetheart, and others that I forgot their names. They're in the ground, in containers, even on the screened patio. I live in super-high humidity 7b.

I will overwinter the tubers in the garage but thinking of bringing a few plants inside over the winter to bring me cheer. How do I decide?
