Gold Dust Croton

One Codiaeum variegatum cultivar, Gold Dust Croton originates from tropical Asia and the Pacific. It is recognized for glossy green leaves dusted with golden-yellow spots, making it one of the most ornamental Crotons.

Needs bright indirect to direct light for rich coloration. Insufficient light fades the speckles.

Water moderately; let the top 1–2 inches dry before watering again. Provide humidity and warmth (65–85°F). Feed monthly in spring and summer. Wipe leaves to keep their glossy finish.

As a Flare energy plant, Gold Dust Croton’s golden flecks symbolize abundance, optimism, and transformation—echoing Diwali oil lamps and lantern festivals where light banishes darkness. In Feng Shui, its yellow and green hues activate the Fire element and nourish Earth energy, fostering prosperity, recognition, and dynamic growth. Place it in your home’s South or Southeast sector to amplify wealth chi and creative drive, and keep it near a window for bright, indirect morning light.

Your plant will be carefully packaged with protective sleeves and cushioning to ensure safe arrival. We ship orders within 2–3 business days, and most plants arrive in 3–10 business days depending on your location and plant condition.

Because plants are living beings, some minor imperfections — like a bent leaf or slight soil disturbance — may occur during transit. This is normal and will not affect the plant’s health. We also adjust shipping schedules during severe weather and include heat packs in winter months when needed to protect your plant.
