Only one place where Crotons seem to survive and only one person who can make them thrive in the U.S. Hetty, wonderful banner and quite a change from the usual fare. Smiling how about the others in your collection?

Arif.

Thanks! We have quite a substantial collection of Crotons (Codiaeum variegatum) at the Naples Botanical Garden. Maybe I should take some more pictures. Right now the new leaves are starting to emerge on most after winter dormancy.

I have seen these small trees growing in their natural habitat. They are glorious when they are ten feet or higher, the variety of colours and shapes Whistling . Need humidity though. They did quite well in Karachi next to the sea, over here Thumbs down .
