| The success of your plant depends on a variety of factors, most notably watering and light. Below are some species specific guidelines to follow that will help ensure that your plant will stay healthy and happy. | |
 | Pruning Tips: The Croton leaves and stems can be removed and plucked as they get too abundant. The foliage will continue to grow and elongate as the tree ages. |
 | Fertilizing: We recommend fertilizing only in spring and summer months using a general houseplant fertilizer. Do not fertilize in fall or winter. |
 | Lighting: This plant enjoys bright light to maintain vibrancy of color; can tolerate low light conditions, but leaves will grow darker and stems may stretch and grow leggy |
 | Temperature Requirements: The Croton enjoys a humid, warm climate, ideally between 60-70 degrees. Keep indoors to protect from cold. |
 | Watering Requirements: Crotons enjoy high humidity and will thrive with a weekly misting. Water thoroughly when the soil begins to look dry. Plant may drop leaves if soil becomes too dry. Drooping leaves is a sign of too much water. |
 | Repotting: Repotting or transplanting your plant is a good way to ensure the soil maintains enough nutrients for the plant to thrive. We recommend repotting or transplanting as your plant begins to grow and outgrow its planter. |
 | Indoor / Outdoor: This type of plant does best in an indoor setting. |
