Gold Dust Croton 4"

4" Nursery Pot

Plant Care

Sunlight:

• Place croton in a sunny location such as an eastern, southern, or western window. If a croton is getting too little light, its newer leaves will be less colourful. 

Watering:

• Keep the soil evenly moist, but let it dry out between waterings.
• If humidity is low in your home, mist around the leaves with water once a week or keep a tray of wet gravel near the plant.
• Croton leaves are dust magnets. Gently wipe the leaves with a moist cloth twice a month to keep them clean and dust-free.

Pot:

• When choosing a container for your croton, keep in mind that the plant will grow upright, which eventually may cause it to become top heavy. Pick a container that won’t easily tip over when the croton gets larger. Or, plan to pot up to larger pots over time.
• A drainage pot is best. Croton like to be kept moist, but not wet.
