Care
Only water when the top of the soil is dry to the touch, but ensure it gets a good drink once it is watered. If you’re worried you’ve overwatered your Croton, check the ceramic for any excess water and tip it away.
Crotons love a sunny spot but we would suggest avoiding direct bright sunlight in Summer months as this will scorch the leaves. Don’t forget to keep him out of draughts too and away from radiators.
