I. Dracaena reflexa Cultivation Methods

1. Sunlight

It likes light, but cannot tolerate direct exposure to the summer sun, so shade it promptly in summer. Because it cannot grow without sunlight, it should be given light in the other seasons. At home, it can be placed in a spot with good light, so that the leaves can maintain their vivid color and keep their ornamental value.

2. Water

It has strong adaptability. In daily care, just water it thoroughly after the potting soil dries out. A little more or a little less will not have much effect on it, but it must not be excessive, otherwise it will cause damage. It also needs a certain humidity; when growth is vigorous, you can spray water mist on the plant.

3. Nutrients

It has no great demand in this regard. During the growing season, you can appropriately apply low-concentration nutrients. If too much is accidentally applied, then promptly water with clear water.

4. Temperature

The best growing temperature is 20-30°C. It cannot endure cold, and the overwintering temperature should not be lower than 10°C.

For the beauty of the Dracaena reflexa's shape, it needs appropriate shaping. It tolerates pruning, and even if it is accidentally cut too heavily, it does not matter. After pruning, pay attention to coordinating the management of water and nutrients.
