How to take care of Croton Sunshine

Sun: Direct - Indirect

Provide your Croton Sunshine with bright, indirect light for most of the day. It can tolerate some lower light conditions, but it will thrive best in bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Place your Croton Sunshine in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sun can scorch its leaves, so it's best to avoid placing it in direct sunlight.

Water: When top quarter dry

Water your Croton Sunshine when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Ensure proper drainage in the pot to prevent waterlogging.

Humidity: Any

Croton Sunshine prefers high humidity levels. You can increase humidity around the plant by misting its leaves regularly or placing a tray filled with water and pebbles beneath the pot. Avoid placing it near drafts or air vents, as dry air can cause its leaves to dry out.

Pet Friendly: Caution

Croton Sunshine is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.

Pro Tip

To enhance the vibrancy of your Croton Sunshine's foliage, gently wipe its leaves with a damp cloth periodically. This removes dust and allows the plant to absorb more light, promoting healthier growth and more vibrant colors.
