SUN

The Dracaena Marginata prefers medium to bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate lower light levels. Placement at the interior of a room or light filtered through blinds will avoid leaf burn caused by direct sunlight. 

WATER

Water generously once the top 50%-75% of the soil has dried. They can handle occasional dry conditions but grow best under consistent care. Reduce frequency during fall and winter. 

AIR 

Average indoor air tends to work well for the Dracaena, though these come from subtropical regions and will thrive under their natural conditions. Maintain temperatures between 70º-85º and extra humidity. You can provide a regular boost of humidity by:


  • Misting the leaves 2-4x per week with non-tap water
  • Adding a humidifier nearby
  • Creating a pebble tray that lives underneath the pot
  • Placement in a bathroom or kitchen, if lighting is suitable

PET FRIENDLY

Keep out of reach from curious pets. These are toxic when ingested.

AESTHETIC

Native to subtropical Madagascar, the Dracaena Marginata grows upright on tall, asymmetrical branches with sturdy and narrow, sword-like leaves. Their name is derived from the Greek word for “female dragon” due to the red border along the leaves and red-colored sap emitted by the plant when injured. A white stripe runs through the middle of each leaf, creating a beautiful tricolor masterpiece. Under proper care indoors, these can grow up to 6-10 feet tall in their lifetime.

HEALTH BENEFITS

Active exposure to and care for plants has many proven wellbeing benefits, such as: 


  • Lower stress levels
  • Improved mood
  • Superior mental clarity and focus

Dracaena Marginatas are fantastic air purifiers, producing oxygen while absorbing the most common indoor toxins and carbon dioxide through the leaves and soil.  

SPIRITUAL INTERPRETATIONS

Dracaena Marginatas carry the symbol of good fortune and happiness. It becomes an emblem of positive energy in any dedicated space such as the dining room or office. According to ancient Feng Shui practices, intentional placement at the center of your home attracts this energy towards health and overall wellbeing.

OUR RECS

We recommend a ceramic or clay planter with a drainage hole to provide ideal moisture balance for the Dracaena. When repotting, keep it in a planter of the same size or no more than 2 inches larger.  


Ideal soil is a well-draining mix with aerating and moisture-retaining amendments such as perlite, sand, and vermiculite.


Nature is unique - each plant may vary slightly from the plant shown here. Ceramic planters are sold separately.

It's a really nice story about how we all have different ways of ...
A new acquaintance recently introduced me to "Frederick," a charming, very short children's picture book about a family of field mice who are preparing for the winter. One of them, a young mouse named Frederick, does not do much work and appears to be shirking his responsibilities. Frederick explains to his skeptical family that he IS working by quietly gathering imaginary sun rays for the cold winter days to come. The book ends with the mice experiencing a tough winter, and then being inspired to carry on by a poem Frederick has created that grew out of his meditations when his family members thought he was being lazy. It's a really nice story about how we all have different ways of making contributions, and that important work is not always readily visible, especially creative endeavors. The book also has some exercises for children, including one that guides a participant into writing a poem. If you read this story to a child and then make a poem together, it'll make a sweet project! A few of the words in the story are a bit advanced for young children, which offers a nice vocabulary building opportunity and does not detract from the story. What I like best about "Frederick" is that it acknowledges that we humans are not all the same, and that we need our different talents and personalities to "make it through the winter." It might be especially nice to share with that child in your life who "marches to the beat of a different drummer."
