Like honeyed blood splatter
I had no intention of buying this plant, but was lured in by the unusual splatter pattern on her leaves. It's -- in a word -- punk. I've kept her by a window since she arrived (I read that this is how to preserve Croton Gold Dust's unique coloration), and now she's looking a little yellowed and crispy. I hung a sheer curtain so that she wouldn't fry, but I'm not sure it did the trick. Hopefully, she'll find her new spot on the coffee table more agreeable.
Whatever happens, I'm enjoying my time with her immensely: I'll keep rooting for her, and hoping that she puts down roots here. Thanks, Rooted!
