Codiaeum variegatum 'Gold Dust' (Thin leaves)
Codiaeum variegatum 'Gold Dust' is a houseplant with exceptionally ornamental foliage. Its narrow, elongated leaves are deep green, splashed with golden flecks, creating a "gold dust" effect that illuminates any space. This variety of Codiaeum, with its slender leaves, adds an elegant, exotic touch to your interior decor, perfect for a bright environment.
Origin: Native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Pacific islands, Codiaeum variegatum, commonly known as Croton, is appreciated for its colorful leaves and its ability to adapt to indoor environments.
Growth: Codiaeum 'Gold Dust' has a moderate growth habit and can reach a height of 60-90 cm indoors. The slender, elongated leaves extend from upright stems, creating a slender, attractive silhouette. This plant branches well, forming a dense, bushy structure over time.
Flowers: Although this Codiaeum can produce inflorescences, they are small and inconspicuous, consisting of small white or cream flowers. The plant is mainly grown for its decorative foliage rather than its flowers.
Light: This plant prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate a little direct light in the morning or late afternoon, but it's best to avoid full midday sun, which could burn its delicate leaves. Good lighting helps maintain the vibrancy of the golden spots on the leaves.
Watering: Codiaeum 'Gold Dust' requires regular watering, keeping the substrate slightly moist. However, it is essential to allow the soil surface to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. During winter, watering can be reduced, while maintaining a certain level of soil moisture.
Substrate: A well-draining potting soil is essential for this plant. A mix of houseplant potting soil with added perlite is ideal to ensure good drainage and prevent water build-up.
Toxicity: Codiaeum variegatum 'Gold Dust' is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The leaves contain substances that can cause irritation of the mouth, throat and stomach. We therefore recommend keeping this plant out of the reach of children and pets.
