Codiaeum variegatum 'Petra'

One of my favorite crotons. It has gotten huge😃 #foliagefriday #croton

Wow!! That's a beauty!

Beautiful specimen 🌞

@gjones @shawnasea @sunlovin Thank you all😃I've had this one for years and it always puts on a show.

This is a beautiful croton. My husband rescued a plant from the neighbors garbage that had a fern, a Mande villa and a croton all in one pot. The mandelvilla has not really grown much-the fern and the croton are thriving in their rescue home.

@sunshine061973 That's great😃

This plant always amazes me😃 #variegated #croton

Love the variety of colors 😍😍

@sherrisgarden Definitely one of my favorites😃

@gjones Thanks so much😃

These are beautiful. Also one of my faves. Yours is so big and healthy and the colours are awesome 👍😍

A few of the tiny flowers opened up today🌼 #croton

Mine did this last year. Surprised me. Didn’t know they did that. Mine is a little leafless right now but it does have a lot of new leaves starting again

It's definitely a surprising sight. I'm sure yours will be looking great in no time😃 @docthrill

Look like little fireworks

@heatherdirtyhands They totally do😆

I hope so Kyle, but I think your right now that it’s spring weather

Awesome 💕

@gjones Thanks😃keep your fingers crossed🤞

It's going to flower😲I have had many of my Crotons for years and they rarely ever produce flowers #croton

Never heard of them flowering. That’s cool 😎

@philstalder Thanks Phil😃

This Croton is getting lots of #newgrowth

@cowdenkyle it's like the opposite of a begonia, which start out with sharp, clear colors then fade as the leaves mature...These seem to start out a little bland and then mature into much brighter colors

@emch You're right Eileen🌞More colors coming soon🌈

Beautiful plant👍
