Grrrrrrrrrrr... my croton keeps losing leaves
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 03:52 PM by ailsagirl
I've had these before and it's never happened. It looks
healthy enough but it seems every other day I find a
perfectly healthy looking leaf on the floor.

Anyone else ever had this problem?

Comments? Aren't they supposed to be a breeze to have?
Others I've had kept sprouting new leaves!!

Thanks

1. This says...
that they will drop leaves if exposed to cold.

Look under Information.

2. Thanks for the link...
I spoke to a person at my neighborhood nursery and she says
they're tropical, so they like heat and light. And not to
over- or under-water them.

I might need to look for a new house plant-- with four cats,
one must be careful.

Thanks again...
