Dracaena Marginata or the Madagascar Dragon Tree is just one of many house plants belonging to the Dracaena Group. Plant Care Instructions: Light-Light shade is best. For example actually sitting on a North facing window ledge, close to an East / West facing window or some distance away from a South facing one.
Water when the top 50%-75% of the soil is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer.
Your Dracaena Colorama prefers medium indirect sunlight. Too much direct light can burn the leaves. Pale leaves, slow growth, and small new leaves indicate it is not getting enough light.
This plant likes to be fed every two weeks in the spring and summer with a well-balanced plant food at half the recommended strength. No food is necessary during the winter when plant growth naturally slows. Always make sure the soil is damp before applying any fertilizer.
Dracaenas are highly vulnerable to root rot which possibly comes from any standing water in the soil. So, to avoid this, well-drained and loose soil are suitable for your Dracaena Colorama. It will ensure air circulation around the roots preventing the rotting possibilities.
Your Dracaena likes comfortable room temperatures between 65-80 degrees. Do not allow the temperature to fall below 60 degrees.
The majority of Dracaenas have large rooting systems. So, spacious pots with drainage holes at the base are ideal for this plantation.
Dracaena Colorama leaves are toxic to pets and humans. Typically, ingestion will cause mouth and stomach irritation with possible vomiting.
