Since early 1970, ABBOTT-IPCO(ABI) has served the Horticulture industry as an International source of caladium bulbs, imported Dutch bulbs, perennials and other new and unique products for the greenhouse industry, garden center, landscaper and gardener. ABI Europe is integral to our success. Having a Dutch company gives us more insight and expanded offerings, emphasizing on specialty bulb crops and perennials.  In the year 2000, ABI joined forces with Dr. Bob Hartman to create Classic Caladiums.

Re-inventing the wheel, Classic has brought the caladium industry up to modern standards. We have introduced over 80 NEW, patented caladium varieties since 2007 - many of which have improved sun tolerance. This process takes an average of 7 years of development, testing and trialing before we make a new variety available. In addition, our certification program takes older varieties and rejuvenates them up to standards for modern growing methods. Cleaning up caladium varieties from years and years of accumulated pathogens, irregular habits and growth rate is a large part of Classic's continuing quality control process. We also offer virus tested Canna lily Rhizomes.

    Vibrant & Versatile Heart to Heart™ Caladiums...

  • Do you love the tropical look of bold leaves in vibrant colors? Are you struggling to find something unique for your shade garden? Ready to add life to your windowsill with a few new houseplants?

    Heart to Heart Caladiums are the answer!

    These lush tropical plants are the perfect way to bring that “vacation vibe” to your deck or patio containers, garden beds and even your living room. Though caladiums traditionally thrive in lower light conditions, newer, more sun tolerant varieties can be grown alongside your favorite Proven Winners annuals like ColorBlaze® coleus, Sunpatiens® impatiens and Sweet Caroline sweet potato vines.

    Heart to Heart Caladiums make unique and bold “thrillers” in container recipes paired with shorter, mounded to trailing plants. A container filled with lush caladiums is an amazing sight to behold. They’re also stunning when planted en masse in garden beds. See all of our caladium recipes

    Depending on the look you’re going for and what kind of lighting conditions you are able to provide, you can choose from Fancy Leaf or Strap Leaf varieties.

    Fancy Leaf Caladiums Are more prone to Shade, while the Strap Leaf Caladiums are more sun loving.
