# I’m the new kid on the plant-ation. A week ago I had never heard of…

I’m the new kid on the plant-ation. A week ago I had never heard of Crotons. I picked up this Gold Dust croton from Home De-pot, and she has burst into color. I call her Nugget.

You’ll hear a lot of negative things about crotons, but we have two and we love them! Nugget is beautiful!
