@luvmygreenhouse I have habitually killed crotons until I grouped them together and gave them a dedicated grow light and evaporative humidifier.
Don’t lose hope, the plant will come back with new leaves once it decides it’s comfortable.
If it is any where there is traffic or even a small breeze (a/c unit, door, heat vent) it will throw leaves like it’s the 4th of July parade.
My best suggestion is get it to a place where it won’t be bothered and give it light and humidity and it should reward you with happy leaves.
It took me 5 years before I got brave enough to buy another croton. I got a big mammy tree and it immediately dropped leaves, I got it situated and she’s finally giving new leaves on every branch. Just hang in there and keep trying.
Eventually you’ll find a sweet spot for your croton.

@IWantThatPlant Thank you so much!!! I was hoping she'd come around again!! So I guess I'll just sit back and wait...🤔😄
