How to Care for a Dracaena Plant

Keep your Dracaena (Dracaena species) healthy and thriving with these simple care tips:

Light Requirements: Dracaena plants prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause leaf burn.
Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as Dracaenas are sensitive to soggy soil.
Humidity: Dracaenas adapt well to average humidity but benefit from occasional misting, especially in dry environments.
Temperature: Keep your Dracaena in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Soil Type: Use well-draining potting soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH.
Fertilization: Feed your Dracaena every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer, diluted to half strength.
Pruning: Trim yellowing or dead leaves to encourage healthy growth and maintain the plant’s appearance.
Toxicity: Dracaena is toxic to pets, so keep it out of reach of cats and dogs.
