‘Tapestry’: A New Caladium From GCREC
August 23, 2011 
Zhanao Deng has released a new caladium cultivar on behalf of the Gulf Coast Research and Education Center.
According to Agent’s Update online magazine, ‘Tapestry’ is a fancy-leaved variety with large, attractive pink blotches and red petioles. It has demonstrated high tuber yield potential and performed well in forced containers and landscape use.
Its performance as a pot or landscape plant was significantly better than ‘Carolyn Whorton,’ ‘Fannie Munson’ or ‘White Queen.’ ‘Tapestry’ also sprouts earlier than these existing varieties.
