Their spiky, tropical foliage comes in a variety of colors, shapes, and patterns, and they even help purify the air, so it’s no wonder that they’re a popular choice for homes and public spaces.

Dracaena can survive in low or medium light, but the leaves will look their best in bright, indirect sun. Excessive sun can cause browning of leaves, as can too little humidity.

According to research conducted by NASA, dracaenas can clean benzene, carbon dioxide, formaldehyde and trichloroethylene from indoor air.

These plants are usually happy in average home or office conditions, but if you see their leaf tips turning brown, that's often a sign that the humidity is too low. Mist your plant regularly with water from a spray bottle or put it on top of some pebbles in a saucer filled with a little water.

Dracaenas grown in the garden need warm temperatures, as you'd expect from plants that are native to the tropics. They'll succumb to frost, but if you get an occasional cold snap, you may be able to save your dracaena by covering it temporarily.
