Codiaeum variegatum is a dynamic perennial commonly recognized as the Garden Croton. Bursting with vivacious colors, its broad, glossy foliage presents an array of stunning hues including yellow, red, orange, green, and an occasional rare purple. Originating in the warm, tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, this robust shrub desires a similarly warm and humid home to thrive. Boasting a generous height of 3 to 8 feet, the Garden Croton easily brings a vibrant and exotic focal point to your indoor or outdoor garden, all while enjoying the luxury of partial to full sunshine. Despite its formidable endurance, one should be cautious as it carries a toxicity in all parts, if ingested.
