Light: Medium
Light: Medium
They thrive in medium light conditions but exhibit faster growth when exposed to brighter light. Ideal locations for medium-light placement include areas situated centrally within a room with standard-sized windows. It's essential to note that plant growth is directly influenced by the amount of light they receive.
Sun: Indirect

They should not be exposed to direct sunlight, although early morning or late evening sun is acceptable. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is optimal, and most homes primarily provide indirect sunlight. The ideal location for them is where they are shielded from direct sunlight for most of the day but still receive bright, indirect light.
Water: When half dry
Water: When half dry
Watering requirements vary depending on factors such as environmental conditions, lighting, and seasonality. As a general guideline, water your plant when the top half of the soil feels dry to the touch. Typically, this occurs approximately once a week in an average indoor environment. However, it's essential to adapt your watering frequency based on your specific circumstances to avoid overwatering. Always check the soil moisture before watering to ensure optimal hydration for your plant.

Pet Friendly: Caution
This plant carries a moderate level of toxicity, potentially causing adverse reactions if ingested by pets. To ensure their safety, it's best to prevent pets from consuming it, a precaution we recommend for all plants. The severity of any reaction will vary based on the amount ingested. However, if your pet typically avoids eating plants, this one should be safe to have in your home.
Pro Tip
Pro Tip
Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water slowly near the plant's base, taking care as Dracaena plants have shallow roots. Position your plant away from direct exposure to heating or air conditioning vents.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?
When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!
MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.
Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.
No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
