Very pretty NatureGirl! I agree with terrafirma, like all Croton (Codiaeum variegatum) your plant should be given as much light as possible. They grow as landscape plants here in Florida in both full, blazing sun as well as dappled shade but the more light, the more vivid the leaf colors will be. When grown in the ground, they are drought tolerant once established but they thrive on high humidity which we have year-round down here. Good air circulation is important as well.
