# I’m feeling pretty good about the turn around with my favorite plant:…

_Postat av Michelle Dee den 2025-12-08_

I’m feeling pretty good about the turn around with my favorite plant: crotons. I have purchased so many over the years, but failed at keeping them happy and healthy. The two I currently have are not as colorful as varieties I see now. Have been tempted to purchase more when I run across them, but vowed to keep what I have and learn what they need.

This summer I put Joshua and Caleb on my porch where they received LOTS of sun. Also purchased a new fertilizer and have been feeding and watering on schedule from Planta.

The plants have been indoors for at least 10 weeks now, and I saw something extra on one Joshua. It’s flowering!!! I can’t tell you happy this makes me.

I’m a fairly new croton owner and I love to see this! Maybe someday mine will be half as beautiful as yours!
