Variegated Gold Dust Plant Care Tips

Plant Aucuba Gold Dust in a location that receives mostly shade. This aucuba doesn’t tolerate full sun. Aucuba can tolerate heavy shade, air pollution and poor soils, making them a hardy addition to your landscape.

Gold Dust does well in USDA Zones 7-10, but is commonly used as a house plant in Northern states.

If you want to use fertilizer, choose a well-balanced fertilizer during the vegetative period. No pruning necessary, but remove dead or damaged leaves.

Gold Dust Variegated Aucuba Spacing Recommendations 

For a seamless planting, plant your Gold Dust Variegated Aucuba 2.5-3 feet apart. For space between plantings, plant them 4+ feet apart.

    Well packed and arrived in excellent condition. Roots were healthy and not root bound like some nursery plants. I planted them the day they arrived and they are doing well. We had some cold nights recently and they tolerated it well with just a little burnishing on a few leaves.
    And the availability and price were great.

    I’ll definitely continue to purchase from your company in the future.
