☀️ Light
☀️☀️☀️ (High)
The Croton Codiaeum Mammi Corkscrew thrives in a spot that receives plenty of bright, direct light. This vibrant plant loves the sun, which enhances the color intensity of its leaves. A south-facing window is ideal to keep your Croton happy and healthy.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
Water your Croton when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure the plant is hydrated but not waterlogged. Overwatering can lead to leaf drop, so it’s important to let the soil dry out slightly between waterings.
?️ Temperature
?️?️?️ (Warm)
Croton prefers warmer temperatures, ideally between 18°C to 24°C. It’s sensitive to cold drafts and sudden temperature changes, so keep it away from open windows and air conditioning vents during cooler months.
? Humidity
??▫️ (Moderate)
This plant enjoys a bit of humidity. If your home is dry, especially in winter, consider using a humidifier or placing a water tray nearby to increase moisture levels. Regular misting can also help.
? Repotting
Repot your Croton every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent water retention and root rot. Spring is the best time for repotting, as the plant is entering its growth phase.
? Pet Friendliness
Croton plants are toxic if ingested, so they are not recommended for homes with curious pets like cats and dogs that might chew on the leaves.
? Recommended locations at home
A bright spot like a sunroom, well-lit kitchen, or near a south-facing window is perfect. Avoid placing your Croton in low-light areas, as lack of light can cause the leaves to lose their vibrant colors.
? Air Purifying
While Croton plants are primarily known for their decorative appeal, they also have air-purifying qualities, helping to remove certain toxins from the air inside your home.
