Yesterday I found it again, with flowers now open, and so here I am, to give you a shot at seeing them in all their glory.
Well, I have to admit that in all my years of plant growing, I've never seen a Croton flowering. I get tired of them - their need for just the right light and humidity.
Superbes photos pleines de poésie...

Hi, BUSTANI!
DzēstMy Croton is still small plant and first blooming....Absolutely beautiful flowers. These are stunning! I so appreciate the spring blooms, especially after a long winter.
So pretty! Thanks for sharing.

Croton is an ornamental, often grown in tropical gardens and as a houseplant for its colourful foliage.
It contains an oil with violently purgative and irritating qualities, which is also suspected of being a co-carcinogen. Luckily, it tastes dreadful, so accidental poisonings are rare.
Hello, Gisela!
DzēstI am glad you liked them. Thank you! Oh, I didn't know that this plant is poisonous...
Hello Sandra..Effectivement c'est magnifique d'obtenir un croton qui fleurit. Je n'avais aucune idée de l'allure de cette fleur et je suis surprise de sa beauté. De plus tu dis qu'elle est parfumée ce qui ajoute de l'intérêt à la plante. Bravo à la jardinière.
