What is wrong with these crotons please
What is this? > Flower/plant
Hi. I’m new here so please forgive me if I’ve selected the wrong categories. I have planted about 6 crotons 6 months ago. Now they are looking faded in colour and have brown papery leaves On the lower part of the plant which drop off. I’ve never grown them before- can anyone help with suggestions as to whAt the problem is please. Many thanks in advance Ps I’m trying to upload a photo from my phone but seems it won’t work?
Loss of colour of leaves often occurs in winter due to cooler conditions and less bright sunlight. As the days warm and lengthen the leaf colour should improve. It is best to water the soil and not the leaves and this can lead to browning of the leaves.
