Description

The Dracaena Anita is what happens when Mother Nature decides to paint with highlighters. Sporting slender, arching leaves edged in creamy yellow bands.

Native to Madagascar and the Indian Ocean islands, this gorgeous specimen is like having a piece of paradise delivered to your doorstep. The Dracaena Anita plant transforms any corner into a lush oasis, growing into a bushy, tree-like beauty that usually reaches up to 3 feet indoors… but ours reaches 6-7 feet. 

She's the perfect statement piece for plant enthusiasts who want maximum visual impact with minimal drama—because who has time for high-maintenance houseguests?



Care 

How do you care for a Dracaena Anita plant? 

The Dracaena Anita loves consistent bright indirect light exposure, careful weekly watering when her topsoil dries completely, balanced monthly fertilizer during her active growing season, and stable indoor temperatures between sixty to eighty-five degrees Fahrenheit for optimal growth.

This tropical beauty appreciates consistency but forgives the occasional slip-up. Keep her in well-draining soil, provide moderate humidity (she loves a good misting session), and prune any yellowing leaves to maintain her gorgeous appearance. Low-maintenance luxury.


How often do you water a Dracaena Anita plant? 

Water your beloved Dracaena Anita about every one to two weeks during the active growing season, carefully allowing the top inch of soil to completely dry between waterings for healthy root development and effective prevention of overwatering issues.

During winter months, reduce watering to every 2-3 weeks since she enters a slower growth phase. Always check the soil moisture first—this beauty prefers being slightly thirsty to having soggy feet!


Where do you put a Dracaena Anita plant in your house?

The best place for your Dracaena Anita is near east or west-facing windows with bright indirect light exposure. Avoid harsh direct sunlight so you can keep her in optimal growth conditions and vibrant coloration throughout the seasons.

She also tolerates artificial lighting wonderfully, making her perfect for offices or rooms with limited natural light. Just keep her away from cold drafts and heating vents—she's tropical, not desert-dwelling or arctic!


Is Dracaena Anita high maintenance? 

The Dracaena Anita is refreshingly low-maintenance and forgiving. She’s absolutely perfect for beginners and busy plant parents. If you want stunning natural beauty without a 27-step daily care routine, you’re in luck if you buy an Anita.

She's forgiving with occasional watering mistakes, adapts to various light conditions, and doesn't demand daily attention. Think of her as the zen master of houseplants—beautiful, peaceful, and completely unbothered by life's little chaos.


Does Dracaena Anita need full sun?

Dracaena Anita definitely prefers bright indirect light rather than full sun exposure. Too much direct sunlight will fade her gorgeous cream margins and potentially scorch the foliage. Keep her looking amazing with natural light but protect her from harsh rays.


What fertilizer does Dracaena Anita need?

Feed your beautiful Dracaena Anita with balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once monthly during spring and summer growing seasons. Skip fertilizing completely during fall and winter when her growth slows down—she's a light eater.


Can Dracaena Anita tolerate heat? 

When she’s kept indoors, Dracaena Anita puts up with moderate heat quite well. She prefers stable temperatures between sixty to eighty-five degrees Fahrenheit, but should avoid extreme heat, hot drafts, and sudden temperature fluctuations. She likes her stability!


Pet-friendly?

Dracaena Anita is not pet-friendly, because of harmful toxic saponins that can cause vomiting, drooling, and digestive upset.

Is Dracaena Anita poisonous to cats?

Dracaena Anita is definitely poisonous to cats, causing serious symptoms including vomiting, excessive drooling, loss of appetite, depression, and dilated pupils if ingested. If you suspect your feline friend has nibbled on her leaves, contact your vet immediately.

Is Dracaena Anita toxic to dogs?

Dracaena Anita is toxic to dogs, with symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, excessive drooling, weakness, and appetite loss. Keep your pup's curious nose away from her gorgeous foliage. This stunner is meant to beautify your space, not become a doggy snack!


Factoids

Does a Dracaena plant purify air?

Dracaena plants are NASA-recognized air purifiers, removing harmful formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene, and carbon dioxide from indoor environments, improving your home's air quality naturally and beautifully while looking fabulous! She’s the ultimate multitasking houseplant for health-conscious plant lovers.


Will my Dracaena Anita plant grow into a tree?

Your beautiful Dracaena Anita will grow into a small tree  indoors, getting to about three feet tall with a distinctive woody stem. Over time, you'll achieve an elegant, bushy appearance that brings that rainforest feel to your space.


How long does a Dracaena Anita last?

With proper Dracaena Anita indoor care and consistent attention, your plant will thrive for five to ten years or longer. You’ll get decades of beautiful foliage and air-purifying benefits for your home, rewarding all your consistent care.


Do Dracaena Anita plants like coffee grounds?

Dracaena Anita prefers its coffee grounds delivered via compost rather than direct soil application. Giving her too many grounds can cause problems with soil and water retention, affecting root health and the development of your plant.

A beautifully crafted invitation to journal
Format: Paperback
Lilias Trotter Legacy’s latest book Beholdings is not so much a text as it is a beautifully crafted invitation. Inspired by the journals and sketches of Lilias Trotter (1853-1928—English missionary to Algeria, artist, writer, and journaler par excellence), biographer Miriam Rockness invites the reader to try their own hand at journaling, using Trotter as a model and guide. Rockness herself is no stranger to journaling, and her Preface to Beholdings enumerates the many benefits that await any reader who is willing to commit to the discipline for a period of time. In the short term, Rockness describes how journaling encourages one to focus, to pay attention, to take the time to behold the beauty in the world before one’s very eyes. Each page following the Preface includes a quote designed to stir the imagination, and an image from Trotter’s journals to illustrate what it means to behold an acorn, a flower petal, a sunrise in the Algerian desert. It is not just to see what is before one’s eyes, but to hold it in the mind’s eye and cherish it. As Simone Weil said, “Attention, taken to its highest degree, is the same thing as prayer. It presupposes faith and love.” It is this kind of attention that Rockness encourages the journaler to cultivate, and it is the kind of attention that Lilias Trotter so artfully illustrates. There is ample space on each page for the journaler, thus inspired, to record his or her observations, musings, sketches, or doodles. In the longer term, Rockness suggests that journaling helps cultivate a sense of proportion and perspective. She describes looking back with her husband over her journals from years before, reliving the moments that might otherwise have been forgotten, and allowing those glimpses in the rear view mirror to inform present day experience. Sometimes one finds that images seen in the rear view mirror really are smaller than they appeared at the time! In addition to being an incitement to journaling, Beholdings is a beautifully produced creation in its own right. Great thought has gone into the selection of the typeface, the texture and feel of the paper, the quality of the images reproduced. This makes Beholdings not only a delight to own, but also an exquisite gift to offer. My advice: buy one for yourself, and another for someone you love.

Be clear that it's a blank journal you create, with brief quotes and thumbnail art
Format: Paperback
If one is looking for a personal journal of empty lined pages ~ and a brief Lilias Trotter quote with a thumbnail-size photo of her art on each page then this is for you. I understood it was a book of her journalling with more viewable-size sketches.

When and where economics went wrong
Format: Paperback
This is one of those books that can provide an epiphany to the reader -- but not very many American readers have even heard of it, unfortunately. That could be due to it's being a book primarily about English economic history, with assumptions that the reader is familiar to some extent with things like the Poor Laws and Tory socialism. But I wasn't, and was still able to glean some great insights from the work. That could be because Polanyi is not afraid of repetition. :-) A key insight, and the one that could be summed up as the theme of the book, is Polanyi's realization that prior to about 1830, the market and the economy were considered part of society. That is, economic activity was something that people did along with everything else they did, like engage in social/familial relationships, religious rituals, etc. But with the 1830s came a paradigm shift: the advent of rational capitalism. Now, the market was considered an entity by itself, outside of society. This market entity was viewed as governed by universal laws. Like laws of physics, these market laws were independent of culture, independent of social group, independent of time period, and, in fact, independent of human behavior. While any observer of human nature would say that people often make decisions for emotional reasons -- and modern neurological research shows that virtually every decision we make is a combination of the rational and the emotional -- these market laws assumed only rational behavior on the part of economic actors. Though Polanyi doesn't mention it, it's now easy to see how Alfred Marshall could get carried away with creating a mathematical foundation for microeconomics and how Leon Walras could, reportedly, say that if something couldn't be studied mathematically, it wasn't worth studying. There's no current way to model emotions with math, and so the Ricardian prototype of an emotion-less economics continues into the modern economics of today. These universal market laws frees the market from any social constraints. A number of modern neo-classical economists assert that this makes economics purely amoral, i.e., without regard for any ethics. Therefore any attempts by the public, by politicians, or by workers to add ethics to the market is an interference with pure market workings, which, according to their interpretation of Adam Smith's "invisible hand", will produce optimal results if just left alone. But Smith never said that, and in fact rational capitalism, in elevating greed and selfishness to the status of goals -- see the Ayn Rand work "The Virtue Of Selfishness" -- is, IMO, not amoral at all, but rather is a morality of its own. Anyway, back to Polanyi's insights. Another key one is the concept of a "double movement" in 19th century England. Each move to create a purer market created an ad-hoc counter move. E.g., Ricardian free trade was faced with opposition from workers losing their jobs and local firms losing business Americans can easily think of another example: where the employment of children (eventually) led to laws restricting that employment, simply because human beings have too much of a sympathetic nature to sit still for children losing limbs in the dangerous factories and mines of the time. Polanyi notes that capitalists often blame these anti-capitalist laws on planned activity by socialist anti-market groups, but he says they're actually the result of the recognition by the general public that they don't want to live under a pure market system. Yet another good insight is Polanyi's recognition that market laws treat labor, land, and money as commodities. We can see that today, where neo-classical economists assert that the law of supply and demand should apply to workers as it applies to anything else in the economy. That is, if there's a surplus of workers in one area and a shortage in another, supply and demand dictates the flow of workers from the one area to the other. But a laid-off textile worker in South Carolina is not going to move to China for a job. That's my own example, but Polanyi offers his own from modern English history. The book isn't perfect. Polanyi does have a tendency to generalize, a common failing among authors, IMO. E.g., in discussing the rise of fascism in the 1930s, he's on very shaky ground when he starts talking about the US or about Russian policy intentions during that period. I gave The Great Transformation 5 stars because, even with its faults, the reader will be thinking about Polanyi's insights for some time to come. I am.
