Dracea Tricolor Care

A general rule of thumb is to only water dracaena when the soil feels dry to the touch. water plants thoroughly, or until water freely flows from the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. many growers choose to place a saucer under planting containers to collect excess water.

Trim off any dead leaves and stems.

Use slow-release fertilizer for container plants. Avoid using too much fertilizer.

Partial sun generally means less than six and more than four hours of sun per day. Plants for partial sun will do well in a location where they receive a break from the sun each day. They like the sun but will not tolerate a full day of it and need at least some shade each day.

Use a well-draining indoor potting mix with perlite to help with drainage.

Generally speaking, dracaena marginata is intolerant to the cold and will only grow outside in places where the temperature never drops below 63 to 65°F (17 to 18°C), even in winter.

Choose a pot that is 2.5-5.08 cm (1-2”) larger than the current size.
