Dracaena marginata

Description

Made popular in the seventies, the iconic ‘Dragon Tree’ has been a firm favourite ever since due to its easy going nature. Requiring little in terms of maintenance, it is an ideal plant for the busy and the forgetful, able to tolerate shady corners and forgotten waters.

WATERING

In S/S water when 30% of the top soil has dried out. In A/W allow top soil to dry out 50%. A good tip to remember – if your plant is getting less light then it will need less water.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

Bright, indirect. Shade tolerant.

FEED

Use a houseplant fertiliser once a month from April – October.

REPOTTING

Repot every 2 years or alternatively replace the top 10cm of the soil with fresh house plant compost every year.
