Codiaeum variegatum (Croton) 'Mammi'

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' is a compact croton selection with elongated leaves that curl, twist and spiral as they mature. The foliage carries green, yellow, orange, red and purple tones in a dense curled canopy on woody upright stems.

In a pot, Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' grows as a bushy tropical shrub. Its twisted leaves build a dense crown even on younger plants, while older stems can be shaped in spring to keep fresh growth closer to the base.

Recognisable traits of Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi'

  • Elongated leaves with curled and twisted form
  • Multicoloured foliage with green, yellow, orange, red and purple tones
  • Compact shrub habit suited to containers
  • Dense canopy on upright woody stems
  • Branches after shaping once established

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' twisted growth

Codiaeum variegatum is a wet-tropical evergreen shrub or small tree in Euphorbiaceae, native from Malesia to the southwest Pacific. The species has been selected widely for leaf colour, blade shape and growth habit. 'Mammi' is also encountered in horticultural references under the spelling 'Mammy' or 'Mammie'.

The curled leaf form needs steady moisture, warmth and humidity while the blades expand. Root stress, dry air or pest pressure can show as uneven new leaves, particularly during active shoot growth. A warm, stable position reduces shedding and uneven leaf expansion indoors.

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' warmth and root care

  • Light: Provide very bright filtered light. Acclimate gradually to direct sun so the curled leaves develop cleanly.
  • Watering: Water when the upper substrate begins to dry. The curled narrow leaves show drought stress quickly, so keep moisture regular during active growth.
  • Substrate: Use a fertile, open mix with bark, organic matter and mineral drainage. Good airflow around the roots is essential.
  • Temperature: Keep above 15 °C, with stronger growth from 18–28 °C. Cold floors, open windows and draughty halls can cause shedding.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity reduces crisping during leaf expansion. Dry air often coincides with crispy edges and spider mite pressure.
  • Feeding: Apply a light fertiliser dose during the warm growing months. Hold back after relocation stress or while the plant is growing slowly.
  • Pruning: Prune leggy stems in spring to encourage a denser crown. Cut above a healthy node and protect hands from sap.
  • Repotting: Repot once the roots fill the pot, ideally during active growth. Keep the new container only slightly wider.
  • Propagation: Propagate by warm stem cuttings or air layering to preserve the curled cultivar form.

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' troubleshooting notes

  • Uneven new curls: Check watering, humidity, root condition and pests during leaf expansion. Correct the cause before the next flush develops.
  • Sudden shedding: Look for cold exposure, recent movement or a sharp moisture swing. Keep conditions steady while the plant rebuilds.
  • Spider mite damage: Fine stippling and dull leaves are early signs. Inspect folded and curled surfaces carefully.
  • Limp stems or blackened roots: Check for waterlogged substrate. Refresh into an airier mix if roots are damaged.

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' toxicity and safety

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' is not pet-safe. The sap may irritate skin and eyes, and ingested plant parts can irritate the mouth and digestive tract. Keep it out of reach of pets and children, and clean tools after cutting.

Codiaeum variegatum 'Mammi' etymology and botanical background

'Mammi' sits within the accepted species Codiaeum variegatum (L.) Rumph. ex A.Juss. in Euphorbiaceae. Codiaeum is linked to the Ternate vernacular name kodiho, and variegatum refers to variegated foliage.

Well made materials.
Arrived on time and well packaged. Good quality materials and exact fit. Perfect fit, Easy to install. Make sure to review installation instruction. Don't put the gaskets in the wrong place. Will buy again from this vender.

Good for the $$$
Worked great on my Mercruiser Alpha One Gen 2. Once the bottom unit of the outdrive is off and cleaned it only takes a few minutes to install impeller, seals and housing. A very affordable alternative to taking it to the shop.

Fit perfectly and very complete set of parts
Had everything I needed plus some extra parts in the kit. I probably could have just replaced the impeller for slightly less but while everything was disassembled you might as well replace the works. Included - Water Pump Impeller, Housing, Key, Face Plate, Face Plate Gasket, O-Ring, Seal Face and Carrier Assembly Oil Seal

Good quality, but could have used better instructions
The kit was complete, and all the components were well made. However, if you aren't somewhat mechanical, it would be fairly easy to install the gaskets and backing plate in the wrong sequence. With better instructions, this would be a 5 star plus kit.
