Care guide

Light

It prefers bright, indirect light and can adapt to medium and relatively low indoor light. Keep it out of strong direct sunlight, which may cause spots or scorch the leaves.

Watering

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil dries. Add water slowly until it drains from the pot, then discard the excess. Do not follow a fixed watering schedule. Check the soil first, as drying rates vary with light, temperature and season.

Soil and drainage

Use a light, well-drained houseplant mix and a pot with drainage holes. Do not allow water to collect inside a decorative planter after watering.

Temperature

Moderate household temperatures of approximately 18–27°C are suitable. Keep it away from direct air-conditioning airflow and heat sources, and protect it from sudden temperature changes.

Humidity

Normal household humidity is suitable. Gently wipe the broad leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and maintain their appearance and shine.

Feeding

Apply a balanced or foliage-plant fertiliser every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer, following the rate on the product label. Reduce feeding in winter or when growth slows.

Pruning and cleaning

Remove yellow or damaged leaves at their base with a clean tool. You can trim brown tips while preserving the natural leaf shape.

Hedera tip

Dracaena can be affected by salt build-up in the soil. If leaf tips repeatedly dry out, use low-salt water and avoid overfeeding, allowing excess water to drain freely.

Where to place it

• Well-lit living rooms and bedrooms.
• Offices and meeting rooms.
• Home entrances and reception areas.
• Clinics and commercial spaces.
• Small and medium-sized corners.

Place it directly on the floor or inside a decorative planter that accommodates the 17 cm nursery pot.

Important note

This plant is not edible and may harm cats and dogs if they chew its leaves. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.
