Description

This lemon and lime striped Dragon Tree brings colour and structure into your home - without demanding constant attention! Long, narrow, glossy leaves arch from the top of two upright stems, for a clean, modern look that suits living rooms, bedrooms and home offices.

The variegated foliage is the main event. Dark green stripes sit alongside cream and bright lime tones. It also looks especially strong next to plain green foliage plants, adding contrast and a styled finish to indoor displays.

What makes this plant such a reliable choice is its easy going nature. It copes well positioned away from the full glare of the sun and it also handles slightly shadier spots, which makes it far simpler to place than many colourful houseplants. Steady growth keeps it neat and well behaved over time.

Dracaenas are also known for helping filter indoor air as they grow.

Supplied as an established houseplant in a 17cm pot, ready to display straight away. The two stems measure approximately 30cm and 10cm tall.

Top Tips

Water the plant only when the top 1 inch of soil is dry and then water it thoroughly with tepid water, however, never allow the base of the pot to sit in a saucer of water.

Care Information

Feed the plant with a liquid-based houseplant fertiliser every two weeks in spring and summer.
Repot every two years into a pot one size larger until plants reach the desired height. After that, repot every three years into the same pot to refresh the soil.
Control your plant's height by cutting off the top when needed. The stem will look a bit bare for a while, but within a few weeks, new shoots will appear and the leaves will regrow.
