RAINBOW COLORED FOLIAGE & LOW MAINTENANCE CARE

The Croton Petra plant is a beautiful variegated plant from the tropical rainforests of southeast Asia and India.

Croton Petra shrub (Codiaeum variegatum) features multiple bright colors on its leaves with shades of reds, yellows, oranges, greens, and purples. The Croton’s leaves are oval shaped with vividly colored veins lining the middles and edges to put on a picturesque display.

Petra Croton plant is a perennial shrub and stays evergreen all year long with the right growing conditions. It is perfect for growing indoors as a houseplant but it can also be grown outdoors for landscape design in certain growing zones, or in colder climates, it can be grown in containers and moved indoors for winters.

With the proper sunlight, watering, and humidity – tropical indoor plant enthusiasts can keep this unique evergreen shrub indoors to decorate your bedroom, bathroom, or office.

CROTON PETRA CARE

You can grow Croton Petra outdoors until temperatures drop. Keep croton temperatures above 55 F or more. Crotons zones are USDA hardiness 9-11. In all other areas of the United States, you must keep Croton in a container and bring it inside when the weather is not suitable for them. They will start dropping leaves if in too cold of an environment.

Croton Petra’s size can get fairly large at maturity. The full size is up to 7-10 feet tall and 4-6 feet wide. In warmer climates, you may see small Croton trees growing. It is the larger version of the Croton Mammy variety. More commonly when grown as a houseplant, you will see heights of 3-5 feet tall when containerized.

Croton soil should be well draining and slightly acidic. Any rich, fertile potting mix would be perfect for your new croton plant. As your croton shrub outgrows its pot, the soil will need to be freshened up every few years. Crotons may need to be repotted every 2 years or so. Fertilizing will help your croton grow tall and strong.

Petra Croton Light Requirements

Crotons require lots of full sun. Bright light is best but they can tolerate partial shade or indirect sunlight in warmer climates. We recommend at least 4-6 hours of bright direct sunlight per day to keep them thriving. When growing crotons indoors as houseplants, choose a south or east facing window to allow the proper sunshine to hit the leaves. If you notice your croton plant dropping leaves or producing green leaves that are not as vividly colored, your plant needs more sunlight. Indoor crotons should be kept away from drafty vents or cold areas.

How Often Should You Water a Croton Plant?

Water the croton whenever the soil feels dry to touch about 1 inch down in the pot. The soil should be kept consistently moist the first year of planting to establish a strong root systems. The watering schedule will depend on how much moisture the potting soil holds, the temperature, and humidity in the room or area it is growing in. Crotons do not like wet feet as this can cause root rot and potentially kill the plant. Be sure to keep it in a container with a drainage hole as a potted plant and don’t overwater.

How to Prune a Croton Plant

To keep your large croton plant growing healthy, you should prune it annually! Remove any dead leaves or branches and shape the Croton Petra to the desired size you would like to keep it at. The best time to prune croton shrubs is in the late winter or early spring growing seasons.

Is Croton Petra Poisonous to Cats

Yes! Croton plants are poisonous to cats, dogs, and other pets if ingested. It can even cause skin irritation on humans if the sticky sap that oozes out gets on you. Take caution when growing crotons near your animals.

Pups Love
Color: Green, Size: Medium (2-1/2 in, (Pack of 1)), Color: Green, Size: Medium (2-1/2 in, (Pack of 1))
As you can see from the photo, my pup absolutely loves it! It’s the perfect size for him and for reference he’s 25 pounds. It’s got a nice weight to it, but it’s soft enough to be able to throw and not worry about damaging the walls. We just started playing with it today, but it seems very durable.

Fun for the first day, but just get the round balls.
Color: Green, Size: Medium (2-1/2 in (Pack of 2))
These balls do work, but they bouncy pretty much like a regular chuck it ball. They do NOT fit in the chuck it handheld ball launcher, which makes them a pain to throw. The green color also makes them somewhat challenging to find when the grass is long. That said, they do work as intended, and the dogs like them the same as all the other chuck it balls we own. As the person who had to throw them, my advice would be to just get the round balls that fit in the ball launcher. Durability: 9/10 they hood together better than the traditional balls without the hole (that crack down the seam over time). These have yet to crack despite the same wear and tear. Pros: durable, dogs like them, they do sink in water Cons: green color, hard to fit in handheld ball launcher

Winner!
Color: Green, Size: Medium (2-1/2 in (Pack of 2))
I recently got the BOUNCY DOG BALL TOY for my fur baby, and I'm thrilled to say that it's a total winner! The best feature of this interactive dog toy is its erratic bounce, which keeps my pup on their toes and makes every playtime session full of surprises. The squared corners of the ball cause it to bounce every which way when thrown, making it an exciting challenge for my dog to catch. And because it's compatible with the Chuckit! Ball Launchers, we can play fetch for hours on end without ever getting bored. One thing I love about this fetch toy is its durability. It's made of tough rubber that can withstand even the most aggressive chewers, and it's super easy to clean after a long day of play. Plus, with two balls included, we always have a backup when one inevitably gets lost.

good for puppies who like to eat pee pads
Color: Blue, Size: 28" x 34"
this is the only holder that worked for my puppy who loved chewing up pee pads!! good quality holder and the peace of mind makes the price worth it. it's easy to clean if they pee on the edges and helps puppies learn to stay on the pad. only downside in my opinion is that i have to fold the pee pad to make it fit well... not too much of an issue since pee pads already have a crease in them :) definitely recommend!! and i already bought two lol
