Codiaeum Variegatum Petra is the icon of the croton family: leathery leaves with veins traced in yellow, orange and red over deep green, like stained glass windows in plant form. Every new leaf starts green and slowly ignites into the full colour spectrum. She loves light and rewards a bright spot with ever bolder shades. A fiery green friend that proves foliage can outshine flowers.
Your croton is a light addict: the brighter her spot, the more spectacular her colours, and she even enjoys some morning or evening sun. Water weekly so the soil stays lightly moist, and a little less in winter. She loves humidity, so mist her regularly, especially when the heating is on. Keep her warm and protect her from cold draughts, because chills make her drop leaves in protest. Feed in spring and summer, repot every two years, and keep her colourful leaves away from curious pets.

Your order will be hand picked and packed in our strong and sustainable packaging as soon as possible, after which it will be delivered straight from our greenhouse to your door by your chosen carrier. You can follow the journey of your plants via the tracking link you receive in your mail.

We expect every order to arrive in tip-top shape. We take intensive care of the plants in our greenhouse and use special and as sustainable as possible protective packaging to ship our plants. We also wrote an extensive blog about how to unpack and prepare your plants for growth after shipping. However there are rare occasions where our plants don’t meet their full potential. That’s why all plants are guaranteed for 30 days after arrival, if still in its original nursery pot.
