Dracaena marginata, also known as the Madagascar Dragon Tree, is a popular and striking plant that's native to Madagascar, Mauritius, and other islands in the Indian Ocean. This plant belongs to the Asparagaceae family and features long, thin, and pointed leaves that are often edged in red or pink.

In its natural habitat, Dracaena marginata can grow up to 20 feet tall and is often used as a natural fence or windbreak. The plant is hardy and drought-tolerant, making it well-adapted to survive in harsh tropical environments.

Our Dracaena marginata plants are sold as 3-stemmed trees, carefully hand-selected for beautiful leaves that add drama and style to any room. Each plant is unique and beautiful, with 3 slender trunks topped by a cluster of leaves that can grow up to 3 feet long.

In terms of care, Dracaena marginata is relatively easy to grow as a houseplant. It prefers bright, indirect light, but can also tolerate low-light conditions. It should be planted in a well-draining potting mix and watered thoroughly but allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's important to ensure that the plant is not sitting in standing water. Fertiliser can be applied occasionally during the growing season to encourage healthy growth.

To style this plant, consider placing it in a decorative pot or planter, where its dramatic trunk and unique foliage can be showcased. Alternatively, it can be used as a statement piece in a minimalist or modern design scheme.

Propagation of Dracaena Marginata can be done by stem cuttings. Simply cut a stem that's at least 6 inches long, remove the lower leaves, and place the stem in a potting mix. Keep the soil moist and the plant in bright, indirect light until new growth appears.

Overall, Dracaena marginata is a beautiful and versatile plant that's well-suited to a range of interior design schemes. Its low maintenance requirements and unique trunk make it a great choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.

Dracaena Marginata care level

These plants are not tricky to manage, so they are recommended if you have just a little experience with houseplants, but you must be confident that you won't overwater and that you have access to good light.

Where should I put this plant?

Dracaena can take high or direct light.

How should I water this plant?

The Dracena plant likes to be watered only when the soil is dry to the touch. During the summer months, you need to water regularly but be careful not to overwater in winter. 

Should I feed this houseplant?

Dracaena Marginata can be given a liquid feed once a month during the spring and summer months. Have a look at our vegan, organic plant food! 

Is this houseplant suitable if I have pets?

Like most dracaena varieties, it is mildly toxic to pets. The problems with toxicity come from ingestion, but it takes a large amount for symptoms to occur. 

What size is this plant?

W21cm X H120cm

Realistic book of el Camino de Santiago
Format: Paperback
This is the most realistic and informative book I've read about el Camino de Santiago, (and I've read no less than 10 in my preparation to walk el Camino). It is beautifully written, inspirational, humble and encouraging. The reality of the albergues or refugios hit me, so I decided to book in private albergues or pensiones in advance. Thank you Joyce for opening our eyes about the hard parts of the Camino, but also of all the beauty and the transformative experience. I hope to savor some of what you and Tome did (minus the albergues), and to learn to appreciate every little thing that we take it for granted. Beautiful book! A must read for all who wants to walk The Way.

Real and Uninhibited
Format: Paperback
I’m planning to walk the Camino this fall and bought several books describing personal journeys. This book filled my soul with the author’s well-described authentic expression of her inner journey—the joys, the fears, the icks and the ahhhs. So honest, so inspiring, uninhibited and very real. Not a day-by-day account of a diary but rather the lessons lived and learned along The Way. Beautiful. I would love to give her a long and heart-felt hug for what I gained from her story. 💖

Practical Pilgrim Traveling
Format: Paperback
My wife and I earned a compostela walking a portion of the Camino Frances in May of 2004. Since then I've read many books on pilgrimage, including several accounts of other pilgrims' journeys on the same road we traveled. Many are what another reviewer describes: diaries of the interior lives of the author, focusing mainly on their hardships and triumphs, as if to point out how they changed the camino, rather than how they were changed by it. If I felt that this were all to this book, I wouldn't recommend it. Instead, I think this book provides a wonderful balance between soulful reflection and the pragmatism of the all-too-physical journey. Walking the camino does appear to have all the ingredients necessary for earning a 'spiritual experience merit badge', and some seem to walk it just to earn pilgrimage street cred. Even were that Rupp's intention, and I doubt very much that is the case, she's provided a great perspective for potential pilgrims and useful material to aid past walkers. It's true that she does not shy away from describing unpleasantries of the road: dirty accommodations, illness, rude pilgrims, bad food, and bad weather. These are very real likelihoods, and she discusses them very frankly; pilgrims do not float along the road, barely touching the earth, and any idyllic expectations soon come face-to-face with harsh reality. Rupp does not bring up these issues merely to complain, however; the benefit of this book is how she treats these subjects as well as her prayerful introspection as equally engaging points of reflection and provides a useful perspective on integrating even these issues into a larger pilgrimage experience. The subtitle of the book, however, is "Life Lessons from the Camino", and that's the true value of these observations: her effort in showing that much of our day-to-day life is filled with just these sort of experiences and just this sort of potential for reflection, appreciation, and understanding.
