This plant is beautiful with it's curly leaves. We don't do anything to it, just let it grow. My husband planted it a few years ago and it's just as beautiful today. What do you think?
The leaves a long and curly.
The new leaves are bright green and yellow.
The older leaves turn dark green and orange.

    Definitely a croton. It looks like one called "Red Indian."
