Dracaena marginata ‘Magenta’

Dracaena marginata ‘Magenta’ brings a sleek, architectural look with a bold twist of colour.

Whether styled as a single cane or a multi-stem specimen, it adds height and clean lines to any indoor space.

Dracaena

Dracaena are reliable tropical houseplants appreciated for their upright form and adaptable nature. Many varieties are tree-like in shape, making them ideal for adding vertical interest without taking up much floor space. They thrive with consistent light and moderate watering, and they’re generally very forgiving once settled in.

Caring for Dracaena marginata ‘Magenta’

 Light Needs

Bright, indirect light keeps the magenta edging vibrant. It tolerates moderate light, but avoid harsh direct sun which can scorch the leaves.

 Watering

Allow the top several centimetres of soil to dry between waterings. Dracaena marginata prefers slightly drier conditions rather than consistently moist soil.

 Feeding

Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter as growth slows naturally.
