☀️ Light
☀️☀️☀️ (High)
Your Croton Codiaeum loves the spotlight! Ensure it receives plenty of direct sunlight. A south-facing window would be ideal to keep those leaves brightly coloured.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
Water your Croton when the topsoil feels dry to the touch, but be cautious not to overwater. Too much water can lead to leaf drop. It’s all about finding that perfect balance!
?️ Temperature
?️?️?️ (Warm)
Crotons prefer warmer climates, ideally between 16°C and 27°C. Keep it away from draughty areas and maintain a steady temperature to avoid stress.
? Humidity
??▫️ (Moderate)
While not as needy as some tropical plants, your Croton will thank you for a bit of extra humidity. A pebble tray or occasional misting does wonders.
? Repotting
Consider repotting your Croton every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to encourage health and growth.
? Pet Friendliness
Take care! Croton plants are toxic to pets if ingested. It’s best to keep this plant out of reach of curious cats and dogs.
? Recommended locations at home
Perfect for sunny living rooms, bright kitchens, or any space where its vibrant colours can be admired in full light. Just ensure it’s out of cold draughts and away from pets.
? Air Purifying
Crotons are not known for their air-purifying abilities, but they definitely bring a burst of colour and joy to any room!
