ABSTRACT:

Dormant tubers of an unidentified collection of Caladium Vent. that would not flower in the greenhouse were soaked in a solution of gibberellic acid (GA3) with a concentration of 600 ppm for four hours to induce the formation of inflorescences. Several plants formed inflorescences, and the collection was identified as Caladium sororium Schott.
