Description
Croton Gold Dust is a compact, ornamental plant celebrated for its deep green leaves speckled with golden-yellow dots, almost like sunlight frozen on foliage. With its upright, bushy growth and intense colour contrast, this croton adds instant vibrancy to modern interiors and shaded balconies.
Perfect for planters, corners, and entryways, this variety thrives in bright indirect light and holds its colour throughout the year. Its thick, glossy leaves give it a bold and tidy appearance, while the golden speckles make it one of the most visually playful indoor plants.
Low on maintenance but high on style, it’s ideal for those looking to add colour to their space without cluttering it.
