We have forgotten to water this thing many times and it still looks amazing… in fact it looks better now than when we bought it. We left it outside for the summer months and just brought it in last week and it seems to be doing great in here, too. We have it in our living room where we have a large window and the sun comes up on this side and sets on the other side of the house. We have a blind (typically open but 1/2) over the window so it isn’t in direct light and it is more than 3 ft away from it.

This plant is not pet friendly AT ALL. It is very toxic to animals and even humans, you should use gloves while tending to the leaves or wash hands immediately after. I had no idea until my pig ate half a leaf which forced me to research. I got mine second hand and it had tons of fungus gnats. Very beautiful plant with exotic leaves that catch the eye, i just didn’t have the best experience unfortunately:(

Oof. I am not good with Crotons! He was beautiful and lush when I got him and he’s slowly started to deteriorate. I’ve moved him to different spots so he could get more sun and bright indirect light, I’ve tried watering him less and then watering him more…he’s just an unhappy camper so I put him outside. I can’t do anything right with him.

Beautiful colors and easy to take care of. They need bright light in order to survive and get the beautiful colors they produce.

I like this plant a lot but make sure to bottom water it because I have ran into a lot of problems when it comes to top watering like white mildew around the stocks which really stunted the growth

I... Absolutely demolished this poor plant. I'm definitely going to try again. It is definitely a survivor given how long it lived despite the fact that I continuously mucked it up.

I love Joe’s colors! I see two new green leaves growing. I wonder what color they will turn?

Honestly, finding that I’m not a huge fan of crotons in general…

Be wary of overwatering, but new leaves are sprouted almost everyday!

Very fussy about water light and placement… however when they find the right fit they thrive … I love it … slow to grow but so pretty 🥰

This is a beautiful plant that will stand out amongst others. One of my favorite things about it is how fast it grows. With that said, if it does not receive enough water the leaves will quickly fall off. They begin to droop as soon as they lack moisture. Moral of the story, water this bad boi properly, sit back, and watch it out-grow everything else.

Loves sunshine. Loves to dry out completely between watering. Such pretty colors. Easy to see new leaves with little care
