Botanical Name: Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammy' 

Native Region/Environment: Malaysia

Sun/Light: Full sun to part shade.  Direct morning sun is the best whether indoors or out.  Some afternoon shade is good for exceptionally hot climates.  

Temperature: USDA Zones 10-12 but an exceptional houseplant or a good indoor-outdoor plant, weather permitting. Temperature below 60 degrees will result in leaf loss and possible mortality.

Water: Keep soil consistently moist without standing water.  It is better for the potted plant's soil to dry a little on top than have water sitting at the bottom.

Soil: Moist, fertile, well draining soil is optimal but croton are very adaptable even to poor soils just not standing water.

Growth Pattern:  In naturalized tropical and subtropical environments in warm, sunny locations they grow into densely compact bushes with color vibrancy increasing based on the amount of sunlight and moisture.  General rule of thumb with crotons is the higher the degree of color variation of the plant the higher the light requirements.

Mature Size: 8' x 8' under ideal outdoor conditions.  Compact, rounded bush 36" high and 24" wide at maturity indoors.

Attributes: A whimsical compilation of twisting, curling leaves of unimaginable multicolor patterns that bedazzle the eyes. Strong bright light=strong bright colors; indirect, mostly shade or filtered light=muted colors with a dingy grey hue, but still attractive.

Pot: 5"

Croton are sensitive plants and go into shock easier than most plants: avoid changing their environment, i.e., lighting or temperature, unnecessarily.   

Crotons are good air purifying plants removing formaldehyde, benzene and other VOC's from indoor air.

Codiaeum 'Mammy' is in the Euphorbia family.  This plant may have a degree of toxicity that may cause illness or discomfort if ingested.  It is grown and sold for Ornamental purposes and not intended as a food nor fodder.  Additionally, contact with the sap of this plant may cause irritation or discomfort.

Great for freezing apple sauce, peanut butter, etc for a treat.
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Our dog has extreme separation anxiety. When ever he even thinks we are going to leave he barks and jumps in our face. He is a mini Aussie, so he can jump high. I have researched ways to help him not freak out so much when we leave. I read that giving him something like this with some yummy frozen in it like peanut butter, apple sauce, wet food, etc. so he relates us leaving to him getting a yummy treat. He still freaks out when we leave, but not as bad because he wants the kong but also wants to remind us he doesn’t approve of us leaving, lol. It’s Kong, so obviously very high quality. It’s pretty heavy. I wish there was an in between size, this is a little too big and the smaller size isn’t big enough. So his tongue can’t quite reach the end inside. He also plays with it when it’s not filled with treats. We have a few so one can be in the freezer while he has one. Thank goodness he is a dog that doesn’t destroy stuff when we are gone, just yells at us when we are leaving. After we are gone he just pouts. But this gives him something to do and keeps him busy. It takes him quite a while to finish what’s inside.

Helps with separation anxiety, keeps dogs busy
Size: Medium (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Have been using kongs for my labs for years. Brand new the kongs do have a strong rubber smell. Try putting the Kong in a pot with water over low fire to help reduce the smell. Stuff with favorite treats or fill with peanut butter and freeze. Will keep dogs busy and chewers with an indestructible toy

Very durable and my Dutchie loves it
Size: X-Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
This is one of many Kongs I have purchased through the years. This one was the extra large that was purchased for my Dutch Shepherd. Every night at bedtime, he gets his Kong stuffed with some dry food, treats, and a nubs bone to hold everything in place. He loves his Kong and runs for his crate at bedtime. Usually, he doesn’t eat the treats immediately. But sometime during the middle of the night, he will wake up and eat. Every Kong I have purchased through the years has been very durable. I highly recommend this product for all sizes of dogs.
