Care
A Dracaena likes a medium lit spot in your home. Do not place your plant in direct sunlight or the leaves will be scorched, water once every 10 days and only once the soil is dry on top. Remove any brown leaves to encourage new growth. Check the soil regularly, Dracaenas don’t fare well if they are overwatered.
