4″ Croton Gold Dust

Croton plants are known for their bright and vibrant foliage, covered in green, scarlet, orange, and yellow splotches. They do not like to be moved, so don’t be alarmed if they shed a few leaves once they come home. Also known as rushfoil, Joseph’s coat, and variegated laurel, this slow-growing evergreen perennial is native to Australia and Southeast Asia.

Placement: Place croton in a sunny location such as an eastern, southern, or western window. Their love for humidity makes a bathroom or kitchen a great place for these plants.  

Pets: Moderately toxic. Ingestion may cause mouth and stomach irritation and possible vomiting.
