QUICK PLANT OVERVIEW
COMMON NAMES: Lemon Lime Dracaena, Corn Plant, Dragon Tree.
FAMILY: Asparagaceae.
NATIVE HABITAT: Tropical Africa.
SIZE: Grows 3 to 5 feet tall indoors (can reach up to 10 feet over many years).
PET SAFETY: Toxic to dogs and cats.
CARE REQUIREMENTS
LIGHT: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can burn the leaves. It tolerates lower light, though colors may become less vibrant.
WATER: Allow the top 1 to 2 inches of soil to dry out completely before watering again (typically every 7 to 10 days). Use filtered or distilled water if possible, as fluoride or chlorine in tap water can cause brown leaf tips.
SOIL: Use a loose, well-draining potting mix (such as a blend of standard potting soil with perlite and peat).
TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY: Prefers warm indoor temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Average room humidity is fine, but light misting helps keep leaves dust-free.
