Product Description

Looking very much like a palm tree in miniature, Dracaena marginata (also known as the Madagascar dragon tree) is an evergreen shrub with a crown of long, sword-shaped, dark green leaves, finely edged with reddish-brown. A superb, low-maintenance houseplant that has few problems.

Dragon trees need a bright position which makes them an ideal candidate for a light windowsill out of direct sunlight and away from artificial heat sources such as radiators. They're slow growing too, taking around 10 years to get to 5ft, so won't overtake your home.

As well as being super-easy to grow, Dracaena is well known for helping keep the air in your home clean as it filters out pollutants keeping it fresh and clean - according to NASA, this plant can remove formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene, found in furniture, fireplace smoke, and common household products.

Perfect for displaying in this Dark Grey Plastic Houseplant Pot cover. It has simple but stylish design and is made from recycled plastic. It is just the thing for covering up the unsightly nursery pot and will effortlessly coordinate your plant with your existing decor.

Pot covers are watertight and don't have any drainage holes, this will allow you to place them on your favourite pieces of furniture without the worry of spoiling the surfaces when watering. Easy to use, it's best to remove your plant before watering and allow the water to drain completely out of the plant before placing it back into the pot.

Supplied as 1 x established plant in a 17cm pot & 1 x dark grey plastic pot cover (Diameter: 18cm, Height: 17cm).

Plant Information

Top Tips

Water the plant only when the top 1 inch of soil is dry and then water it thoroughly with tepid water however, never allow the base of the pot to sit in a saucer of water.

Care Guide

  • Feed the plant with a liquid houseplant fertilizer every two weeks in spring and summer.
  • Repot every two years into a pot one size larger until plants reach the desired height. After that, repot every three years into the same pot to refresh the soil.
  • Control your plant's height by cutting off the top when needed. The stem will look a bit bare for a while, but within a few weeks, new shoots will appear and the leaves will regrow.
