$14.98 – $24.98
Codiaeum variegatum ‘Petra’
Description
Striking foliage sets this croton apart from the average tropical houseplant – bold yellow, orange, pink, and red markings cover the dark green, pointed, oval leaves. A true knockout for any bright room. It prefers well draining soil and to dry between waterings. If you decide to let this tropical live outside in the summer months, wait until temperatures are consistently above 60 degrees.Additional information
