A versatile evergreen shrub for almost anywhere in the garden. Slow-growing, it will only reach 1.8m (6ft) after ten years if left unpruned. Like all aucuba varieties, 'Crotonifolia' will grow in shade - although its gold-blotched and finely-speckled leaves colour best in full sun. It thrives in most soils, including dry ground near hedges and trees. Acuba Japonica will make a nice loose hedge or lightly trimmed to shape once annually.
