Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta'

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' is a red-edged dragon tree cultivar with slim green leaves and vivid magenta margins. The colour sits along the leaf edge, so the plant keeps a narrow outline while adding a strong red-purple accent.

Its growth comes from slender woody canes that carry tufts of pointed leaves at their tips. As the stems lengthen, the plant develops a light tree-like silhouette with space between the foliage heads. Cutting back a tall cane can restart growth lower on the stem and help maintain a fuller indoor shape.

  • Leaf colour: Deep green blades edged with reddish-magenta margins.
  • Growth habit: Slim woody canes with narrow leaf tufts at the tips.
  • Indoor size control: Can be pruned to manage height and encourage branching.
  • Container outline: Red-edged foliage on narrow canes keeps the plant slim in a pot.

Red-Margined Leaves on Woody Canes

This cultivar belongs to Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia, the western Indian Ocean dragon-tree variety formerly known as Dracaena marginata. The variety’s natural form is a shrub or tree, and 'Magenta' keeps that cane-forming structure indoors on a smaller scale.

The narrow leaves show their strongest colour along the margins. Bright filtered light keeps new leaves firmer, while overly harsh sun can scorch the leaf surface. The stems and leaves tolerate short dry spells, but constant wetness around the roots can lead to soft stems and root decline.

Care for a Red-Edged Dragon Tree

  • Light: Use bright indirect light near a window; introduce any direct sun slowly and avoid hot midday exposure.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly after the upper part of the mix has dried, then keep the saucer empty.
  • Potting: Choose a pot with drainage and avoid large jumps in pot size after repotting.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant above cool draughts, with steady indoor warmth around 18–27 °C.
  • Substrate: A mineral-aerated mix helps protect the roots from long wet periods.
  • Pruning: Shorten tall canes in spring or summer for easier regrowth and shape recovery.
  • Humidity: Average home humidity is acceptable, but a very dry room can make leaf tips crisp.
  • Feeding: Apply a diluted balanced fertiliser during active growth, then pause or reduce feeding in winter.

Colour and Root-Zone Troubleshooting

  • Dull new leaves: Move gradually into brighter filtered light if the plant has been kept far from a window.
  • Brown tips: Check for dry air, mineral buildup, hard water or fertiliser excess before changing the whole care routine.
  • Soft stems: Remove the plant from wet substrate and inspect the roots if a cane loses firmness.
  • Dry, bleached patches: Shift away from direct sun that hits the same leaves for several hours.
  • Small pests: Look for spider mites, scale or mealybugs on leaf bases and along older stems.

Safety for Pets

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep the plant out of reach and remove fallen leaves, especially in homes with pets that chew foliage.

Botanical Background

Dracaena comes from Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon. The species epithet reflexa means bent back sharply, and angustifolia means narrow-leaved. Dracaena marginata is an older synonym of Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia.

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' has slim canes, defined height and red-edged foliage in a narrow potted form.

This is great 24" computer monitor that has a port for everyone. Includes HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA. The monitor also includes speakers. The screen will tilt but is not height adjustable. The screen is easy to use and easy to setup. The color quality is fine and is good for a working environment. The monitor is also durable. No replacements yet and over 3 dozen purchased.

GOOD QUALITY with a GOOD PRICE to Match!
Size: 24-Inch, Size: 24-Inch
A LITTLE BACKGROUND: I had already owned two small monitors, 24" each, however recently I was rearranging some furniture in the room, of which both monitors were sitting on top of, and during the moving around one of the monitors fell off. Well one of the monitors became unreliable and so I started my hunt for a new one to replace it. NOW THE REVIEW: Right off the bat two things drew my interest in this 27" monitor. 1. The thin beveled edges for a larger usable screen area, and 2. Easier access to the buttons for configuring the monitor.(i.e. brightness, contrast, etc.). Coming in a VERY close second with #2 is the cost, $99.99($100). Looking at the cost of other monitors small than 27" was a lot more! So, 3 inches more screen area(than my previous monitors) and the features mentioned above for only a hundred dollars? ...OK! I had purchase two 32in VIEWSONIC monitors not too long ago for another computer, and I really like the monitors, HOWEVER, the one and only draw back with those two monitors is the location of the buttons for configuring the monitor is in a very bad location to easily access and use, on the backside of the monitor. I cannot see what button I am about to press! Hold on!!! Wait a minute you might be saying right now... You might be wondering, if not asking, what about the screen resolution, what are things on the screen looking like?? Well that is a great question and my answer to that is, as it said, "a picture is worth a thousand words"...or in this case, $99.99! I have attach a picture with this review so see for yourself. MY CONCLUSION: GOOD QUALITY with a GOOD PRICE to Match! I would like to add one more thing. After my wonderful experience with this Amazon Basics product, I am VERY impressed with this line/brand! This brand is as good as the "big name" brands(ViewSonic, Samsung, LG to name a few.) from what I have observed. I have taken a look to see if Amazon Basics makes a 32in monitor, so far I have not seen one in my searching. Keep up the great job Amazon Basics, I have been so impressed that I have been searching your brand now whenever I am shopping computer accessories. I have two, Amazon Basics USB A 3.0 hubs I purchased before I bought the monitors.

Very nice monitor, am happy, albeit with some concerns described in review.
Size: 24-Inch
I am excited about my new monitor! My old monitor was a combo TV/computer monitor that suddenly would not light up (after about 15 years of great service!), so I took a chance and ordered this Amazon Basics 24-inch monitor that arrived within 24 hours! It is HUGE compared to my old monitor and so far is very readable for use on my desktop. I do have a few quibbles I'd like to mention "for the record": First, the box it came in was all taped up with torn parts, so I am assuming someone returned it to Amazon. I am not clear on what the warranty is for this item, which I thought would be a new, never-used monitor. Will have to clarify this with Amazon. Second, there was NO VGA cable included, which I found disappointing and seems cheap on Amazon's part. Good thing I had a VGA cable for my old desktop! Third, I found the "manual" and instructions for assembling the stand for the monitor to be confusing and unnecessarily complicated. Apparently Amazon has two different models for this monitor and one manual describing how to assemble and use it. I got confused because it has 2 different stands and it's not clear from instructions which one I'm assembling! Further, I found it impossible to put the plastic parts together in a way that offers confidence the thing will not fall apart. I could not get the upright plastic part all the way connected and will be holding my breath and handling it gingerly so as not to have the thing fall apart on me and destroy the monitor! Further, it says to "grip the bezel firmly with both hands"!? What is the bezel?? Seems unnecessarily complicated; but maybe I'm dense...? Now on to the monitor itself: The text and images are quite crisp, which my eyes truly appreciate. And I specifically ordered this monitor because the ad says the controls are on the front. However, I have yet to figure out how to adjust things and I find the present setup way TOO BRIGHT! I will read the manual in hopes of finding how to use these frontal controls, because so far I have not succeeded in using them. I turn them on but before I can figure out how to find the Brightness control, it turns off! Since the screen is not touchable, how do I make changes? I tried using the desktop keypad with no luck. I think there should be a way to adjust controls using the mouse or keypad, instead of being befuddled as I am! I will contact Amazon for help with any lingering problems and to clarify the warranty. So far, I'm happy with this larger, more legible screen, especially after using cell phones and tablets which have literally wrecked my vision! Thanks, Amazon, for this beautiful monitor and speedy delivery. I do think you should give us a courtesy credit for the missing VGA cable! ;-P

Solid monitor choice
Size: 24-Inch
These monitors are awesome and at a great price also. I am a display gamer nerd. While im not using it for gaming I mention that because im picky and I test these things with measurement equipment. These are solid for the price.
