Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity; mist occasionally or group with other plants.

Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix.

Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a general houseplant feed.

Temperature: Ideal range is 18–26°C; protect from cold drafts or sudden temperature drops.

🌿 Tip: Rotate your Croton Petra regularly for even colouring and light exposure — and gently wipe its leaves to keep their glossy finish shining bright.
