The ‘Sunny Star’ croton becomes the brighter yellow the better the light source. It will tell you if it is not getting enough light because the yellow coloring will fade and the plant will grow tall. With a well-lit space, periodic misting, and deep but infrequent watering, crotons can grow into low shrubs. It will drop its leaves if it gets too much or too little water – confusing, but that’s when you dig into the pot to see how wet or dry the soil really is, or better yet , use a humidity sensor. Crotons are not suitable for pets and can cause stomach upset if ingested by your furry friends.
