So, I cut off all new growth and sent the poor thing to the asylum :( It is doing well now and is sprouting :)

Unfortunately, it was attacked by croton scale:

It rapidly overgrew the Eleanor Roosevelt that has been in the ground for over a year:

The Pixie (a generous gift from Lamar) is the fastest grown croton in my garden of over 60 crotons. The beginning (the Pixe is on the right):

The main feature is a pink border on the leaves. I think, it is Bravo :) It is impossible to kill even with my skills :)

Leaves: new, grown, old

Ana, your Cronstadt is gorgeous! Now I want one :(. I also like the name:) All your crotons are so beautiful! Can you post a current picture of your Van Burren? I finally got one. …people are probably just busy. I am very busy re-doing the rest (the major part) of my landscape, killing the...

Cute :). I had them…in my garage! In the tray for paint (small amounts of paint: cup-like tray) from Home Depot. Only then I realized how much time I spend outside with my garage door open….:rolleyes:

She is beautiful! Thank you so much! How are you going to get it to Tampa? I actually have great neighbors: 55+ is a very happy community as I found out. Ours is just not suited for gardening: there is too much fun to live here: golf, tennis, pickle ball, bowling, shuffleboard, yoga, Tai Chi...

Thank you so much for your reply, Anna. I got over the VB already :) I need to slow down ...All what I am doing recently is digging a dirt outside. I live in the golfing 55+ community and my neighbors are making fun of me:(

...and this "blue feet" story is outstanding!

WOW! What a great vacation! What great crotons! What great natives (and non-natives) are lying on the beach! :)

Thank you, Ana. I wish I have bought it :(. As for the color - is it very different from Mrs. Iceton? Mrs. Iceton is the only pink croton that I have so far, and it went through this winter with flying colors. ...And Petra lost half of its size. This was a mild winter but I had a lot of cold...

Ana, your Van Buren is really beautiful. Can you tell me more about it? Does it grow in shade? How does it take cold? I could have bought one yesterday at the USF spring sale (thank you, Scott, for letting me know!) but I am afraid to buy something that I couldn't possibly grow and opting out...

Thank you, Dean :) It is on the north-west corner of my corner lot protecting me from everything: deadly Nord-West, afternoon sun, road noise, viewers...you name it. But it will probably take me 10 years to get protected??:D ...and also 10 years to identify the palm in question :D...and I never...

Here is a picture of the Mule palm, that Scott donated to my future garden :)
