Fun Fact About the Dragon Tail Plant

This adaptation not only aids in stability but also allows the plant to absorb moisture and nutrients from the air, enhancing its growth potential!

History of the Dragon Tail Plant

The Rhaphidophora decursiva was introduced to the houseplant market in the late 20th century, gaining popularity for its unique foliage and ease of care. Often confused with other members of the Monstera family, the Dragon Tail Plant stands out due to its distinctive leaf shape and vigorous growth. It has become a staple among plant enthusiasts, especially in urban environments, where its ability to thrive in lower light conditions is highly valued.

Simple, easy, and strong
Size: 16 Inch, Color: White
Kind of on the smaller side but for the price it’s just fine. Easy to install with just a screw driver if you can miss a stud, else you’ll need a drill. Strong enough to hold what a normal person would put on a shelf that size. No worries and it looks great

Good shelves for the price can be challenging to install correctly
Size: 16 Inch, Color: White, Size: 16 Inch, Color: White
Good quality shelves for the price. Happy with the purchase. They give you assorted hardware to mount each shelf. Wall anchors for masonry or brick and anchors for drywall as well as screws to affix shelf to the wall bracket. The installation was fairly easy but it can be a bit difficult to get the bracket leveled on the wall. The “level” they give you is useless, it is only the tube - not in a housing, so 1 1/2” long. You will need a better level. Basically you place the bracket where you want the shelf to go then make sure it is level and take a pencil to mark the holes. We ended up using a heavier quality wall anchor so only needed 2 anchors instead of the four they send you. Once the bracket is on, slide the shelf onto the bars coming from the bracket and use the 2 set screws to secure it in place. Check for level and if it isn’t you can remove shelf and loosen bracket screws and wiggle the bracket while still attached while retightening screws. We had to re-level one of our shelves this way. Hope this helps and that it makes sense. As for weight capacity I wouldn’t want to put more than a couple of pounds on a shelf. As it is secure, it is hollow inside and too much weight would probably either cause the shelf to sag or damage your wall
