Three with simular leaf shape but ...

[Moose]

The following crotons have simular leaf shapes but are distinctive in color.
These are awaiting to get planted in Mooseland in the Spring.

This one is named Madame Butterfly.

All pictures were taken at 7:30 am this morning. Temperature was 54 F.

This one is named Red Quill.

This one is reportedly a sport from Madame Butterfly.


Hence the name, The Moth

Anyone else got these going in their garden?
I would love to see your photos!

...and a few more Madam Butterfly (1,2,4) and a Red Quill (Glock version); Moth is slowly defoliating after the cold.
