Home Botanicals Live Plants Croton Petra

DETAILS

With bold, vivid red, yellow, and orange hues, the Croton Petra is a popular relatively low maintenance tropical house plant once it situates itself in your home. To keep it bright and cheery, make sure the soil is thoroughly dry between waterings as too much water will cause wilting. Use a general fertilizer in a well-draining pot and do not feed in fall and winter. Provide adequate sunlight for 4-6 hours per day.

WATER

Water the plant thoroughly when soil is dry until the water flows out the bottom of the pot. Wilting for a Croton means too much water.

SUNLIGHT

Needs lots of sunlight, 4-6 hrs. per day, if possible. Maintain 60-70F..

NUTRIENTS

For best results, use a general houseplant fertilizer once in early spring, once in early summer, and again in mid-summer. Do not feed in the fall or winter. Use a commercial potting soil designed to provide good drainage and a pot with unobstructed drainage holes.
