Plant of the Month
10” Dracaena Marginata (Assorted)
Dracaena Marginata, native to Madagascar, thrives in warm conditions with bright, indirect light—perfect for adding architectural greenery indoors. It’s currently available in assorted varieties including Bicolor, Colorama, Magenta, and Green.
Why people love it: the narrow, arching leaves create a clean, sculptural silhouette, and each variety offers a different color story— from deeper red edges to lighter, striped variegation that brightens darker corners.
Quick care: Bright indirect light • Water when top soil begins to dry • Excellent drainage • Rotate for even growth • Wipe leaves to keep sheen.
