Care:

Light: Crotons prefer bright, indirect light indoors. They can tolerate some direct sunlight, but too much can scorch their leaves. Outdoors, they thrive in full sun to partial shade.
Water: Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
Temperature: They prefer temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C). Protect them from drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Humidity: They prefer high humidity but can adapt to moderate levels. Mist the leaves or use a humidity tray indoors.
Soil: Well-draining, rich potting mix is ideal. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and sand works well.
Growth:

Crotons are bushy, evergreen shrubs with leathery, colorful leaves.
They can grow rapidly under optimal conditions, reaching heights of 3-6 feet tall and wide.
Size:

Indoors, they typically grow between 2-3 feet tall, but can grow taller in ideal outdoor conditions.
Color:

‘Mango’ Crotons are known for their vibrant, multi-colored leaves. The leaves can feature shades of yellow, orange, red, green, and even purple, often with striking patterns and variegations.
Hardiness Zone:

Crotons are typically hardy in USDA zones 10-11. They are often grown as indoor plants in colder climates and can be moved outdoors during warmer months.
Climate:

They thrive in warm, tropical climates. Outdoors, they can tolerate heat and humidity well but may require protection from strong winds and frost.
Landscaping:

Crotons are popular in tropical and subtropical landscapes as colorful accent plants or hedge plants.
They are also used as container plants on patios, balconies, and indoors to add a splash of color.
Additional Info:

Pruning: Regular pruning helps maintain a bushy shape and encourages new growth. Remove any leggy or damaged branches.
Propagation: Crotons can be propagated from stem cuttings placed in water or soil. Ensure the cutting has at least one node and keep it in a warm, humid environment until roots develop.
Pests: Keep an eye out for spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
