Halp!! Does anyone know why my croton leaves have fallen off all the sudden? I moved it to a window that gets direct sunlight so maybe that was it? Donāt think I over watered, if anything I probably under. Is it salvageable?

Plant Lives MatterI know some croton cultivars need higher humidity, but not sure if thatās as big a necessity with Petra. I will say, I have a Mammi and come to find out, it starts to drop leaves if the temperature drops to like mid-60s, which it was doing because I prefer to sleep in a cool room. Iāve since moved it to a warmer area. Perhaps one of these things is the issue here? It looks like itās still relatively healthy, so if you correct the problem, it should eventually recover.

I keep my house around 68-69. And it was right next to a a vent so I bet you thatās what it was!! Do you know if itāll grow back?

Had the same thing happen to mine, went from 7 leaves to 2 leaves in a day :( I accidentally let it get very dry between waterings, so that might be what happened to yours as well

RusstyYou moved it. Thatās what you did. Kinda like Calathea, they like to be left alone. If you have to change its environment, do so over the course of a month or more. More light, more water but incrementally

Brianna100% my croton always drops a few leaves if I move it to a new location. I keep it by my kitchen sink to water easily and it never moves.

IplantevenrightnowšŖ“Iāve heard this about Crotons, that they donāt like to be moved, and drop leaves easily. Good luck!

AKFeightThrow those leaves in a prop box for a while. Add it to the pot.
