The leaves of this showy croton are vividly and irregularly coloured green, yellow, red and burgundy, so they really put on a dazzling display, while offering textural interest with their gentle ruffles. Also, as there are typically 3 plants in each pot, they already look really bushy and full.
Home care: Beauty like this needs certain requirements but given the right conditions this striking plant will thrive. Place it on a warm east or west facing windowsill with a constant temperature of no less than 16°C, but not in direct sun. It likes moist air so mist the leaves regularly, or stand it on a tray of damp pebbles so the moisture can evaporate into the atmosphere. Water freely from spring to autumn with tepid water keeping the compost moist, reducing through the winter months. Feed through the growing season with a liquid fertiliser.
