Light Place dracaena in a spot with bright indirect light. While the plant tolerates short periods of direct sunlight, long exposures will cause leaf scorch. Indoors, it also tolerates low-light conditions although it will grow better with more exposure to indirect light. Outdoors, it needs a location in partial shade or dappled sun. Soil For potted dracaena plants, use any peat-based commercial potting mix, which has the slight acidity that these plants prefer. If grown in the landscape in tropical regions, the soil should be rich and well-drained. Water Keep dracaena consistently moist during their growing season (spring through fall), but allow them to go drier in the dormant winter period. Water them thoroughly each week during the active growing season, letting excess water go out of the drainage hole. In winter, water moderately every two weeks. Temperature and Humidity Most dracaena species thrive at temperatures of 70°F to 80°F but will react badly if temperatures drop below 50°F. They are tropical plants and prefer higher humidity. Use a room humidifier if the air in your home is particularly dry. Fertilizer During spring and summer, give dracaena houseplants a monthly feeding with a water-soluble fertilizer formulated for houseplants. Do not fertilize in fall and winter when plant growth slows down.
