I am a Professor of Nursing at National University in San Diego, California and gardening has become an excellent stress reliever.<br /><br />I have a 4 croton plants about 2 ft in height in a 36 inch pot. Do you think that they would benefit from a larger pot? i read that they can grow up to 4 ft, and i am afraid of stunting the growth.<br />Sincerely,<br />icunurserae@hotmail.comraebrookshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05917515669762673826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932214561355159990.post-68055509400113165932008-08-22T02:31:00.000-04:002008-08-22T02:31:00.000-04:00Dear Danielle,<BR/><BR/>I see you have a passion about crotons.<BR/>So do I. <BR/><BR/>How many collection do you have ?<BR/><BR/>If you need more crotons, I would be so glad to send you some.

I had my father send me some crotons from Puerto Rico. I am so happy to learn that between the cuttings and root hormone I might be able to pull this one off. Greatly appreciate all the great information you provide on your site. I am in Central Florida (Lakeland). Happy Gardening :)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932214561355159990.post-49621564260616620302008-02-05T07:35:00.000-05:002008-02-05T07:35:00.000-05:00Crotons, dracaena marginata and allamanda are very easy to propagate. Leave the allamanda in water for a couple weeks until it grows roots. The croton can be planted right away. Cut a slice of bark off the bottom, dip in rotting hormone, stick a hole with a pencil in the potting soil in your pot, plant the cuttings, water and keep in shade till well rooted.Nicolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05253130857755408695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932214561355159990.post-8347991632972776122008-02-01T17:12:00.000-05:002008-02-01T17:12:00.000-05:00Crotons are such beautiful plants.
