    My Croton has done some amazing things over the summer. It has grown leaves up and down the woody stalk. Can I seperate them from the plant >? Grow other Crotons?

    croton are usually propogated by taking stem cuttings (not just a leaf).

    Thankyou Joclyn.. Well, there are stems on these leaves; and I believe that I can grow another plant from those.

    Side shoots 6"-7" should be easy propagated using a small pot of well draining soil.
