Dracaena marginata, also known as the Madagascar Dragon Tree, is a popular and striking plant that's native to Madagascar, Mauritius, and other islands in the Indian Ocean. This plant belongs to the Asparagaceae family and features long, thin, and pointed leaves that are often edged in red or pink.

In its natural habitat, Dracaena marginata can grow up to 20 feet tall and is often used as a natural fence or windbreak. The plant is hardy and drought-tolerant, making it well-adapted to survive in harsh tropical environments.

Our Dracaena marginata plants are sold as single-stemmed trees, carefully hand-selected for their thick, beautiful trunks that add drama and style to any room. Each plant is unique and beautiful, with a slender trunk topped by a cluster of leaves that can grow up to 3 feet long.

In terms of care, Dracaena marginata is relatively easy to grow as a houseplant. It prefers bright, indirect light, but can also tolerate low-light conditions. It should be planted in a well-draining potting mix and watered thoroughly but allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's important to ensure that the plant is not sitting in standing water. Fertiliser can be applied occasionally during the growing season to encourage healthy growth.

To style this plant, consider placing it in a decorative pot or planter, where its dramatic trunk and unique foliage can be showcased. Alternatively, it can be used as a statement piece in a minimalist or modern design scheme.

Propagation of Dracaena Marginata can be done by stem cuttings. Simply cut a stem that's at least 6 inches long, remove the lower leaves, and place the stem in a potting mix. Keep the soil moist and the plant in bright, indirect light until new growth appears.

Overall, Dracaena marginata is a beautiful and versatile plant that's well-suited to a range of interior design schemes. Its low maintenance requirements and unique trunk make it a great choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.

Dracaena Marginata care level

These plants are not tricky to manage, so they are recommended if you have just a little experience with houseplants, but you must be confident that you won't overwater and that you have access to good light.

Where should I put this plant?

Dracaena can take high or direct light.

How should I water this plant?

The Dracena plant likes to be watered only when the soil is dry to the touch. During the summer months, you need to water regularly but be careful not to overwater in winter. 

Should I feed this houseplant?

Dracaena Marginata can be given a liquid feed once a month during the spring and summer months. Have a look at our vegan, organic plant food! 

Is this houseplant suitable if I have pets?

Like most dracaena varieties, it is mildly toxic to pets. The problems with toxicity come from ingestion, but it takes a large amount for symptoms to occur. 

What size is this plant?

W24cm X H110cm

Great beach read!
Format: Kindle
This is a great beach read! Hannah is a travel influencer, touring the country in her vintage van with her Great Dane, Dude. She was thinking about settling down in a real home for a while when she inherited a beach house from her Pops. As she arrives, she unexpectedly runs into Simon, who is under the impression that it is his house, left to him by his Gramps. When the lawyer arrives to explain things, it turns out that they each own 50% of the house. In order to inherit, they each must spend at least two months living in the house and there are a few other stipulations included. Neither of them is happy about the situation, as Hannah wants to live there, and Simon wants to sell. As they meet people in the neighborhood, they find out there is a lot they didn’t know about their grandfathers. The characters are quite well developed and interesting. I enjoyed watching their relationship develop.

A little greasy, stains hands, smells great
This tanning lotion is better than Planet Fitness lotion, but I am giving it time since I just started using it, but I can tell it smells delicious, lotion as well. A little greasy for my liking but it gets the job done! Make sure to use a glove as the stuff can stain your hands!!! The lotion goes on like BUTTER! 🧈

GREAT - Must buy!
Cannot reccomend these enough. Actually helps turn your burns into tan and reduce redness with the after sun product and the tan enhancer REALLY works. Be careful to let the brown enhancer dry if you're wearing white as it will rub off on your clothes but it did wash out!

Does not absorb all the way BUT STILL THE BEST!
This is THE BEST outdoor/by the pool/by the water tanning lotion ever! I have used it in my tanning bed for years. It gives you a STUNNING rich, brown tan after just a couple of sessions. I will say the browning lotion doesn't absorb all the way so it does and will make a mess! But it does NOT stain ever, it washes right off. Once I am done tanning, I just take a dry towel and remove excess lotion. The after tan lotion is amazing and will turn any little burn into a beautiful tan overnight! My all time fave! It smells like mocha and coffee which makes sense because there's coffee as an ingredient!

Love love love
I have never had a tanning product work so well for me. First off let me start with saying that how quick it works is based off of where you are in the world in my experience. For example, if you are at the beach or an island or somewhere the sun is closer to the equator, it works quicker. If you are somewhere further north, it takes a bit longer, but still not by much. I would say only about a 15-30 minute difference for seeing results varying UV index. This product has definitely made it easier to tan living up north. And the aftercare lotion with this stuff is *chefs kiss*. I would put the aftercare stuff on after laying out on the beach and getting red like Larry the Lobster, then would wake up the next day with a tan and moisturized skin. Plus, with working, it makes it harder to spend my day soaking in the sun(sadly). But I still have a great tan after a week. Also, I am a skincare finatic and this did not make my face breakout or anything. (It does also have a sort of molasses smell but it really isnt horrible). So yes, buy the product. It’s so worth it.
