About This Product

Croton 'Mammy' (Codiaeum variegatum) is a beautifully colored plant native to Indonesia, Malaysia and Australia. It has medium sized, colorful leaves in shades of yellow, orange and red. Croton 'Mammy' has a woody stem and is technically considered an evergreen shrub. It can grow in size to 10' tall when planted outside in tropical climates and after a number of years. Water normally and don't allow the soil to remain wet. Allow to dry between watering. Crotons love humidity and will appreciate a humidity tray beneath the pot, but will also do well in common household humidity levels. Crotons are sensitive plants to being moved and will go into shock and drop leaves. This is completely normal and the leaves will grow back quickly. It is best to pick a spot in the home and try not to move the plant too much. They are also sensitive to temperatures and will drop leaves if the temp gets below 60 degrees.

USDA Hardiness Zone 9-11

Container Gardens/Terrariums/Houseplant:

This plant is not recommended for enclosed container gardens or terrariums due to its large growing size, but it makes an excellent, easy-to-care-for houseplant!

Josh's Frogs offers a wide variety of glass terrariums, container garden soils, drainage layers and other supplies for all of your indoor gardening needs.

Vivariums/Animal Terrariums:

This plant is not recommended for dart frog vivariums or any other excessively humid vivariums. This plant will do well with tree frogs and Day Geckos and in less humid vivs/enclosures.

Good, sturdy, healthy plant

I ordered this plant within a group for a new vivarium I was assembling. All plants came in healthy and ready to plant. This one is much darker than the pictures with very little orange or yellow on it. Just dark green leaves with a single red vein down the middle. We'll see if this changes as it acclimates to the tank. Regardless it is a sturdy and unique plant for my White's treefrog.
