Codiaeum variegatum a.k.a. Croton

One of most lovely and eye-catching plants I have in oil palm plantation - Croton!

Look at the colorssss! 

Croton is a small to large shrub, 1-4m tall, often grown as informal hedge plants. 
The leaves are variegated in mixture of green, yellow and red. 
The leaves also come in many shapes: simple or lobed, flat or twisted, narrow or broad. 

There are about 100 varieties!
