About Croton Gold Dust

Croton Gold Dust has dark green leaves which are splattered with bright yellow dots. The yellow spots will fade away on the new growth if the light is low. This plants are found in landscapes and indoors as houseplants solely for their good looks. The plants grow to a maximum height of about 3 feet, although other members of the Croton family grow up to 6 feet, with a spread only about 2 feet wide. This is one of the most common cultivars for both indoor and outdoor use.
Croton Gold Dust is typically offered as an indoor plant, but can also be used outdoors as a seasonal accent plant in containers or plantings of annuals or mixed ornamentals.
