Croton Petra is magnificent evergreen houseplant with large multi-colored foliage. Croton Petra positively influences emotional condition and increases efficiency. It reduces the content of fugitive chemical compounds in the air by 7-10%. It is an air-purifier, it absorbs harmful substances from the indoor air, which improves mood and removes stress after hard working day. It grows best in bright spots with no direct sunlight. It can tolerate partial shade, but the brightest color of the leaves will appear in bright diffused sunlight. Water the plant with approximately 1 glass of room temperature water when the top few inches of soil seem to be on drier side to the touch (about once a week depending on the growing conditions). Don’t let the plant sit in soggy soil. Croton Petra is shipped in 4” pot. The plant prefers high level of air humidity. Croton Petra must be watered systematically, and moistened with a sprayer. It doesn’t stand drafts, which have negative effect on the plant. Feed the plant with a complex mineral fertilizer during growing season once in two-three weeks. The height of the plant shipped varies from 10” to 12” which is measured from the bottom of the pot to the very top of the plant. The width of the plant is between 6” to 8”. The repotting of the plant is made once in a few years in the early spring, since the soil can lose all its useful properties during this time. The pot should be just a little bigger than the previous one. Your plant may look little different from the advertised; however, be assured, we handpicked our plants to meet your expectations.
