Can anyone tell me why my croton put out this MASSIVE leaf? Could it be bc of the fertilizer?

    Bright light can make the leaves big!

    The big leaf is the standard size leaf for that croton variety when raised in full sun. Place it in very bright light for at least 8 hours a day to bring out more colors and increase the size of the leaves. 🍂 Check the roots. It might need repotting. This would explain the small size of most of the leaves🍀🪴

      Yes that does make sense. It came in a narrow pot but I switched it to this one because I could see the roots were 🙃 can I let it be a little root bound before I switch it?

      No need to repot so soon if you just repotted it.
