Plant Care

Light: Provide your Dracaena Compacta with bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light levels but may not thrive as well. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.


Temperature: Maintain a comfortable room temperature between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing the plant to cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).


Watering: Allow the top inch (2.5 cm) of the soil to dry out before watering. Water your Dracaena Compacta thoroughly, ensuring that excess water drains from the pot. Empty the saucer beneath the pot to prevent waterlogged soil, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering during the winter months when growth slows.


Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A mix for tropical plants or a blend of potting soil, perlite, and peat moss can work well.


Fertilization: Feed your Dracaena Compacta with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during the dormant season (fall and winter).


Pruning: Prune your plant to remove any dead or yellowing leaves. This promotes a neat appearance and encourages new growth.


Repotting: Repot your Dracaena Compacta when it becomes root-bound or outgrows its container, typically every 2-3 years. Choose a slightly larger pot with proper drainage.


Pests: Dracaena Compactum is generally pest-resistant, but it can occasionally attract common houseplant pests like spider mites or mealybugs. Inspect your plant regularly and treat any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.


Cleaning: Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust and keep the foliage looking vibrant.

Perfect for homeschooling!

Just finished up reading this as part of our homeschooling curriculum this year. What a gem this book is! Both my boys (9 & 13) were super interested in it and it kept their attention. Great way to learn about Indigenous cultures and traditions through story. Highly recommend!

This was a favorite fourth grade class book club book during a study of Native Americans.
Format: Paperback
This year my fourth grade class read the book Children of the Longhouse as a book club book. They were divided into groups of 4 and 5, and each day they would prepare a section of the book to read, and discuss it. Then the leader that day of each group shared what they thought. I don't want to spoil the story, but we were examining the relationships that the characters and the community in the book had to nature, and my students loved that. They found it interesting to learn about the beliefs, and that the challenges people had to face and overcome. They loved the climax and the ending too. Characters that they had felt were "bad guys" led to discussions of what options people in another culture might have which would necessitate them doing things that seem bad to us, like disobeying adult advice. I love the way this book fleshes out a pre European existence in the Northeast that helps us picture what life might have been like in an Iroquois village. We love the role that LaCross plays. My students use the Iroquois word for it. I pointed out the glossary at the back with pronunciations for Mohawk words, and my students loved using them and would even discuss how to correctly pronounce them. The book introduced my students to many ideas that they had never been exposed to, and they cared about the characters a lot. They also loved discussing the book more in an in depth way, and then hearing what other groups had had to say. I was interesting how similar the things that each group shared were. We can see that we need to shift our attitudes and be more connected to the natural world all around us.

museum quality
Format: Paperback
This is a kid's book, which is well illustrated, and useful. I have worked as a storyteller in schools. Kids of all backgrounds love native stories! All of Joseph Bruchac's books are high quality, museum pieces, just really good, the apotheosis [ideal] of what a storybook could be like. gives a very good description of the native lifeways around stories, and gives another view of native storytelling. is another book that gives you native context, by an author who also has native storybooks in print, including . Entering into native lifeways is not necessarily judgeable by white man culture, as shows. One thing one notices in native cultures is that they ask new questions, something like one sees in . I find native metaphysics to be similar to Quantum Mechanics. While not a native book, gives some ideas on how life would work, from that perspective. has stories about tricksters, which are not dissimilar to native stories. teachingdrum.org used to have a list of books of native stories, which is the most comprehensive I've seen. That is a nonprofit, and I have no connection with them, this cites the info resource only. All storytelling is fascinating. is one example of European stories about animals, which are not totally dissimilar. Stories are fascinating. If you want to entrance, train, entertain, educate, and improve children, nothing is faster or easier than storytelling.
