Croton Iceton
The Croton Iceton is a vibrant houseplant featuring linear leaves splashed with canary yellow, blush, and coral hues. This slow-growing variety can reach an impressive 3 to 6 feet, making it a striking indoor statement or a beautiful outdoor hedge in warm climates. It thrives in bright, indirect light to maintain its intense coloration and prefers consistently moist soil with high humidity levels. Handle with care, as its sap is toxic to pets. It prefers temperatures between 60 to 70°F, making it a unique addition to your home.
