Is my croton a goner? This is my first croton so I was way out of my league, I think over watered it and I left it in disk of water and I think it didn’t like it, the first pic Is from November 1st and the last two were 9 days apart

It’s a goner, for sure. Crotons are super tough. They don’t like to be moved AT ALL! They like a lot of sun and a lot of humidity too. I chucked mine when it got spider mites (they are really prone to them too). Didn’t have any desire to fight to keep it alive, haha.
