Thrives in bright, indirect light. Brighter light enhances its vibrant colors, but avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause leaf burn.
Watering Instructions ▾
Keep the soil evenly moist but well-draining. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Croton 'Petra' prefers consistent moisture but is sensitive to overwatering, so ensure proper drainage.
Care Tips ▾
• Humidity:
Prefers high humidity. Misting regularly or placing near a humidifier can help maintain vibrant foliage, especially in drier indoor environments.
• Temperature:
Ideal temperature range is 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F (15°C), as this can cause leaf drop.
