Characteristics

Crotons are a common houseplant most recognizable by their striking foliage, especially the Oakleaf Croton. This tropical plant has brilliant-colored leaves that begin a bright yellow and transition to magenta and red as they age. The leaves are thick and leathery and can be anywhere from 2 to 12 inches long.

How to Care for Crotons

  • Light: Bright to moderate filtered light. If a Croton is getting too little light, its newer leaves will be less colorful.
  • Water Preferences: Water thoroughly and allow the plant to significantly dry out between watering.
  • Special Care/Notes: Especially prone to spider mites, it is best to work in insecticidal soap preventative care every now and then. Gently wipe the leaves with a moist cloth twice a month to keep them clean and dust-free.

To ensure plants are delivered with the most care, we ship plants Monday-Wednesday. Plants purchased after Wednesday or over the weekend will be shipped on the following Monday. Check out our shipping policies for more information. Thank you!

"What a fun and whimsical nursery. There is something for everyone. It feels like every turn you find another treasure. Pricing is boutique-like but plenty of items on the under $15 side. We went in today for greeting cards and found the perfect cards for my grandma. I've purchased many garden supplies and plants here as well. They always have great quality and variety. The owner is amazing, generous, and community focused."

"Bath Garden Center has a huge selection of plants. I always buy more than I planned on buying. I'd like to say I hate them for it... But I actually love their selections! And the staff are friendly and helpful. Always a great place to go! 😀"
