Agoston,
Hard to say only that it could be a Cardinal, John Peed or Postman
Joyner. or even a Freida Hemple. All of these have red centers and
green edges and leaf shapes. I'm looking at a Caladium standard-Fancy
Leaf Chart, one I got at the TPIE. I can't make out the distinction.
Abbott Ipco gave these charts out. Here's their website maybe they can
tell you.
www.abbott-ipco.com
They do Caladiums, Flowerbulbs, Perennials, and Other Horticultural
Products.
It's a beautiful Caladium, we were playing around with crossing some of
them and we can't wait to see what we get. Most of them are still babies.
Later, Delia

It might be 'Freida Hemple' or 'Postman Joyner'.

Dear Jani,
As others have pointed out, it could be one of many commercially sold
cultivars which are and have been developed by Caladium breeders in Central
Florida. From your photo, one can observe that this particular cultivar,
whatever it`s given 'name' is, would seem to be a hybrid between a C.
bicolor and a C. schomburgkii (the 'tear-drop' leaf shaped Caladium
species). C. schomburgkii seems to cross easily w/ C. bicolor, and some
vars. seem to be used extensivly to impart that deep scarlet color into its
offspring. The smaller leaves in your photo, by their color and shape,
illustrate the influence of the C. schom. in its parentage.
Grow in a very well-draining 'jungle mix', keep the soil moist and warm, dry
the pots off and let it go dormant in LATE fall, store corms dry in a warm
garage over winter, plant in spring.
Good Growing.
