Found this at an abandoned home. The plant is tall and wispy. I could only see the underside of the leaves. Just looked big and red, so I applied an air layer four weeks ago. :) Today I stopped by to check on the air layer to find it bent over from the heavy rains. The leaves are quite large. Here are examples of three leaves. Would sure appreciate an ID. This croton was growing in some heavy shade and has not been fertilized in years.

The moose needs your help. :eek:

Here it is potted up. 2nd photo has leaf 6 inches wide. 3rd photo is another leaf measuring 11 1/2 inches. The lengths do not include the petiole. Does this help with an ID ? :confused:
