Caring Tips

Watering

Change the vase water once in 10 days.

Light

Dragon trees grow best in bright light but they can also survive in dim light. Plants in lower light situations will grow slower and will produce smaller leaves with less intense color. Don't place your dragon tree in full sun because the foliage might burn.

PLANT INFO

Dracaena (Dracaena marginata), more commonly known as a dragon tree, is an attractive, stiff-leaved plant with green sword-like, red-edged leaves. The plant has narrow, slender gray stems that are topped with shiny, arching leaves. In the spring, the outdoor varieties can develop tiny and fragrant white flowers, followed by circular yellow-orange berries. When grown as an indoor plant, flowers and berries rarely appear. These plants are perfect for a beginner gardener because they're very easy to grow indoors.

This small tree will grow to about 20 feet in warm outdoor climates, but it is generally grown as a potted houseplant and kept pruned to 6 feet or less. Unlike many indoor trees, it tolerates a wide range of temperatures.

Dragon trees are tough, drought-tolerant plants with aggressive root systems that make excellent houseplants. Sometimes they are grown as single-stemmed plants; other times grouped or even braided together in the same pot.
