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.

Love my mat!
Color: Pink, Style: 1/2 Inch
I’m new to stretching and recovery classes, and there is a lot of floor work. I was using the gym mats, but my knees, lower back, and glutes were hurting from being on the floor. This mat is the perfect thickness and feels wonderful during floor exercises. It gives me the extra cushion I need without being difficult to use. It’s also lightweight, durable, easy to clean, and easy to roll up for transport. The pink makes me smile. That said , the mat makes the classes more enjoyable.

PLUSH! Fabulous yoga mat!
Color: Black, Style: 1/2 Inch
SO comfortable! It feels like a soft memory foam padding. I use it for several exercise classes and it is great for all of my needs! I love the strap it comes with to keep it rolled up in between classes and the ability to carry it anywhere.
