Description:
Codiaeum variegatum, commonly known as garden croton, is a tropical evergreen shrub native to Southeast Asia and the Pacific islands. It is prized for its large, colorful leaves that come in various shapes and colors. While it makes a striking indoor plant, its sap can cause skin irritation, and its seeds are toxic if ingested.
