DRACAENA

Light: ☀️ Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Water: 💧 Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Be cautious not to overwater, as Dracaenas are sensitive to root rot. Make sure the pot has proper drainage.

Soil: 🌱 Prefers well-draining potting soil. A standard houseplant mix works well, but ensure it's not too heavy or moisture-retentive.

Temperature: 🌡️ Thrives in temperatures between 65–80°F (18–27°C). Keep it away from cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Humidity: 💦 Enjoys moderate humidity but can tolerate dry air. Mist occasionally or use a humidity tray in very dry climates.

Fertilizer: 🌼 Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in winter when growth slows.

Pruning: ✂️ Remove yellow or dead leaves as needed. You can also trim the tops to encourage branching if the plant becomes too tall.

Growth Habit: 🌿 Dracaenas are slow-growing, upright plants with long, narrow leaves that are often variegated in shades of green, yellow, or red. They can grow from 3–10 feet tall, depending on the variety, and are commonly used as decorative indoor plants.
