Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

Croton plants thrive in medium to bright, filtered light. They should be placed in areas where they receive morning sunlight, such as east or north-facing windows. Avoid direct sunlight as it can burn the leaves, causing them to lose their vibrant colors. In low light conditions, the plant may lose its coloration, so finding the right balance is key. Indoors, place your Croton in a well-lit room where it can receive adequate light without being exposed to harsh direct sun. Proper placement ensures your plant maintains its stunning foliage and healthy growth.
Water your Croton plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Since it's mostly kept indoors, it may take a few days for the soil to dry completely. Water during early morning or late evening hours to allow the plant to absorb moisture effectively. Crotons prefer moderate humidity levels, so occasional misting or placing the plant near a humidifier can be beneficial in dry conditions. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Proper watering practices will keep your Croton healthy and vibrant.
