☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Dracaena Dragon Tree Palm XL flourishes in medium to bright indirect light but is quite adaptable and can grow in lower light conditions. Placing it in a spot with ample indirect sunlight will enhance its vibrant colour, making it a stunning feature in your home or office.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
This plant likes its soil to dry out slightly between watering. Check the topsoil; if the top inch is dry, it’s time to water. Be cautious not to overwater, as Dracaena prefers to stay on the dryer side than be too soggy.
🌡️ Temperature
🌡️🌡️🌡️ (Warm)
Dracaena thrives in warm conditions. Ensure it’s placed in a room with average room temperatures between 18°C to 24°C. Avoid draughty areas or spots directly in front of heating or air-conditioning units as sudden temperature changes can stress the plant.
💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
This plant does well in moderate humidity but will tolerate lower levels too. For optimal growth and health, consider misting the leaves occasionally or placing a humidifier nearby.
🪴 Repotting
Dracaena Dragon Tree Palm XL should be repotted every two years to encourage growth and prevent root crowding. Use a well-draining potting mix suitable for indoor plants. Ensure the new pot is slightly larger than the old one to give the roots ample space to expand.
