Don’t let the soil dry out completely, but water stagnation is also dangerous for the plant. -fertilizing: in spring and summer it requires some feeding with complex mineral fertilizer. Feed the plant once in 2-3 weeks. In winter avoid fertilizing. -nuances: the ideal humidity level for Croton Mammy is between 40 and 80%. The lowest temperature for normal growing for the plant is 60 °F, but the temperature level should not exceed 80°F. It is not frost resistant. Sudden cold can cause defoliation or even death of the plant. Croton Mammy needs to be repotted from time to time.
