GENERAL INFORMATION
- The dragon tree, also called by its Latin name, Dracaena draco, is an evergreen succulent tree native to subtropical zones on and near the northwest coast of Africa.
- It is closely related to the corn plant, but unlike that species, the dragon tree is a much less common houseplant because of its large size.
- It is, however, quite a slow-growing tree that forms a palm-like canopy of long, pointed leaves on stems that emerge from a thick trunk.
SOIL REQUIREMENT
- Dracaena thrive in rich soil with plenty of organic material, such as a well-draining, peaty commercial potting soil.

LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- Dracaena prefers bright, indirect light; it tolerates dimmer light, but growth slows as a result.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- Water the plant thoroughly once a week, allowing the water to run through the container completely.
