Croton are bold and beautiful tropical plants that look amazing when planted in groups in any landscape. These are excellent plants for adding color any time of the year; you know that fall is fast approaching once you notice their stunning foliage next to pumpkins. These popular plants have rounded variegated leaves with colors ranging from green to red to orange, pink, and yellow. We like to plant them as accent plants or in foundation plantings, and when we plant a few of them close together and let them grow to their full height, they create a magnificent hedge! If you want to add bright colors, plant them in any spot and enjoy the view. Croton also makes even better houseplants or office plants!
Croton can grow to be large shrubs, especially when they are planted in a spot outdoors with plenty of full sunshine. The more light they receive, the brighter the colors. They are very heat tolerant, easy-to-care-for and, once established, will have low to moderate watering needs. For the best display, we recommend feeding them regularly with fertilizer.
Stop into any of our locations and allow one of our expertly trained nursery professionals to help you with your landscape design and show you how to incorporate beautiful plants like these into your yard.
"We purchased a few of these to plant in our entry way of our home that gets nearly no direct sunlight. They have grown amazingly and flurished in that location. They have some really cool colors and seem to be very hardy so far. "
