I bought this houseplant from Lowes yesterday. It had no tag for identification, or care. I couldn't resist the curly leaves, which have yellow speckles. If anyone knows what it is or can give me some care instructions, it would be appreciated! I just repotted it and am anxious to find out more about it. Thank you!
Croton - Codaeum spp. Does the pot have drainage holes in the bottom? Basically, if you water this plant when it gets dry to the depth of your first knuckle, and put it in a sunny place, it will love you and grow for you for years. A weekly misting won't hurt it either, and will help discourage spider mites.
Thank you!! I have never seen a croton like this. I have another one with flatter, multicolored leaves that is doing well, so I will give this guy the same care. Thanks for your help!!
