Species as per Flora of India Vol 23 (Editors N. P. Balakrishnan, T. Chakrabarty, M. Sanjappa, P. Lakshminarsimhan & P. Singh- by Botanical Survey of India (2012)):
Codiaeum variegatum (L.) Blume (Cultivated)

 

Pl. go through Codiaeum (‎‎‎‎‎‎Euphorbiaceae) page with images of species (done mainly by …) in efloraofindia.

If you find any mis-identification, pl. let us know. If anybody can send images of other species of this genera (for incorporation in the website), if any, it will be really nice.

Also, if anybody is interested to take up the activity of inserting images on efloraofindia pages from efloraofindia posts, pl. let us know.


It is okay …


I would have thought we would have a lot of croton submissions from all over India


The leaves of the garden croton are highly variable and you are right that the full range of variation is not available in the images depicted here.


Thanks, …, … has made more changes by adding four more images.
