Codiaeum Variegatum ‘Mad Painter’ (Croton)

Codiaeum Variegatum ‘Mad Painter’ is a striking tropical foliage plant loved for its bold, painterly splashes of yellow across glossy green leaves. Its colourful variegation brings instant brightness to indoor spaces, patios, shaded gardens, and tropical-style displays, making it a standout feature plant for customers wanting strong year-round leaf colour.

This eye-catching Croton is ideal for adding a vibrant, decorative touch with minimal fuss when grown in warm, protected conditions. Best colour develops in bright light, while its compact, bushy habit makes it suitable for pots, courtyards, and sheltered garden beds. Crotons are evergreen tropical shrubs grown mainly for their foliage, with Codiaeum variegatum commonly reaching up to around 3m in warm outdoor conditions, though usually kept smaller in containers.
