Croton Petra Plant In Nursery Pot

Care Instructions

• Water : Codiaeum needs to be in damp soil at all times. They do not respond well to soil that is wet or dry, and either will cause leaf drop. Watering with lukewarm water is recommended.
• Temperature : This plant prefers temperatures between 18-25 degrees celsius. Keep your Croton Petra away from drafts and cold areas like a windowpane in the winter.
• Light : Croton Petra will do best in a bright spot, as it needs lots of light (if possible 4-6 hrs. Per day) to produce all those colorful leaves! If your croton does not get enough light, you might find the plant grows tall and lanky with spare leaves lacking the rich, dark hues.
• Fertilizing : Fertilizing croton plants will encourage growth in these plants, but there is no need to feed them more than once a month.
• Croton Petra is a gorgeous ornamental foliage plant with stunning leaf colour and variegation. The leaves tend to be glossy and oval in shape with pointed tips. Colours range from pink, through reds, oranges, yellows, light and dark greens - so much colour on one plant!
