The Dracaena marginata, commonly known as the Dragon Tree, is a popular houseplant known for its striking appearance and ease of care. The "Sculpture Form" refers to a specific pruning and training technique that gives the plant a unique, artistic shape, often resembling a piece of living sculpture.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Humidity: Average household humidity is usually sufficient, but it can benefit from occasional misting.
Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Keep away from cold drafts.
Soil: Use well-draining potting soil. A mix designed for houseplants is typically suitable.
Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every month during the growing season (spring and summer).
Pruning: Prune as needed to maintain the desired shape and remove any yellowing or damaged leaves. This helps in maintaining its "Sculpture Form".
Repotting: Repot every two to three years or when the plant becomes root-bound.
