SUN

The Dracaena Marginata prefers medium to bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate lower light levels. Placement at the interior of a room or light filtered through blinds will avoid leaf burn caused by direct sunlight. 

WATER

Water generously once the top 50%-75% of the soil has dried. They can handle occasional dry conditions but grow best under consistent care. Reduce frequency during fall and winter. 

AIR 

Average indoor air tends to work well for the Dracaena, though these come from subtropical regions and will thrive under their natural conditions. Maintain temperatures between 70º-85º and extra humidity. You can provide a regular boost of humidity by:


  • Misting the leaves 2-4x per week with non-tap water
  • Adding a humidifier nearby
  • Creating a pebble tray that lives underneath the pot
  • Placement in a bathroom or kitchen, if lighting is suitable

PET FRIENDLY

Keep out of reach from curious pets. These are toxic when ingested.

AESTHETIC

Native to subtropical Madagascar, the Dracaena Marginata grows upright on tall, asymmetrical branches with sturdy and narrow, sword-like leaves. Their name is derived from the Greek word for “female dragon” due to the red border along the leaves and red-colored sap emitted by the plant when injured. A white stripe runs through the middle of each leaf, creating a beautiful tricolor masterpiece. Under proper care indoors, these can grow up to 6-10 feet tall in their lifetime.

HEALTH BENEFITS

Active exposure to and care for plants has many proven wellbeing benefits, such as: 


  • Lower stress levels
  • Improved mood
  • Superior mental clarity and focus

Dracaena Marginatas are fantastic air purifiers, producing oxygen while absorbing the most common indoor toxins and carbon dioxide through the leaves and soil.  

SPIRITUAL INTERPRETATIONS

Dracaena Marginatas carry the symbol of good fortune and happiness. It becomes an emblem of positive energy in any dedicated space such as the dining room or office. According to ancient Feng Shui practices, intentional placement at the center of your home attracts this energy towards health and overall wellbeing.

OUR RECS

We recommend a ceramic or clay planter with a drainage hole to provide ideal moisture balance for the Dracaena. When repotting, keep it in a planter of the same size or no more than 2 inches larger.  


Ideal soil is a well-draining mix with aerating and moisture-retaining amendments such as perlite, sand, and vermiculite.


Nature is unique - each plant may vary slightly from the plant shown here. Ceramic planters are sold separately.

Durable, fun toy
Style: Donkey, Elephant, Cattle, Monkey, Sloth
My dogs love these toys. They make great tug toys and a toy for individual play. They are very sturdy for my agressive chewers.

Will it hold up? We shall see . . .
Style: Donkey&Sloth
My four pound chihuahua puppy loves it! The question is of course, how well will it hold up to his love to destroy every toy with his sharp little teeth. He's played with it all day and doesn't appear to have noticed the squeaker, preferring to just run around with it in his mouth while the crinkly stuff makes crinkly noise. And the no-stuffing is truly a plus, which is what caused me to choose this item. I will update ths review if things go bad.

Exactly what it says
Style: Donkey&Sloth
Exactly what it says and I really liked that even though they were in a small box they weren't compressed and hard. Now I definitely wouldn't say that this is for chewers cause my boy had it ripped in under 10 minutes but I haven't found anything soft he can't destroy in 15 minutes. He actually enjoys pulling stuffing out but these have no stuffing but it has squeaker so pay attention cause as soon as he gets that out I throw it away cause I don't want any piece of that to have a chance to get swallowed

Still in tack.
Style: Donkey, Elephant, Cattle, Monkey, Sloth
Considering they are all still in tack with a frenchie and a Rotty playing with they I have to give them a 5. When I bought them I didn’t think they’d last the week. It’s been almost a month and they are still in tack with some very rough playing. My doggies love them.

Not indestructible, but still good product
Style: Donkey, Elephant, Cattle, Monkey, Sloth, Style: Donkey, Elephant, Cattle, Monkey, Sloth
These definitely aren’t indestructible. My dog got into two of them within a week. I do love that they aren’t filled with batting . She still loves to play with them even without a squeaker or the inside plastic piece.
