Dracaena Marginata

The Dragon Tree, also known as Dracaena Marginata, is a popular indoor plant that is native to Madagascar and other parts of Africa. It is a slow-growing plant that can reach heights of up to 120cm, but is typically sold at a height of around 50cm. The plant has long, thin leaves that are dark green in color and have a red or purple edge. The leaves grow in a rosette pattern at the top of the stem, which is usually thin and woody.

The Dragon Tree is a low-maintenance plant that is easy to care for, making it a popular choice for both novice and experienced plant owners. It prefers bright, indirect light and should be watered only when the soil is dry to the touch. Overwatering can cause the plant to develop root rot, so it is important to be careful not to overwater.

In addition to being a beautiful decorative plant, the Dragon Tree is also known for its air-purifying properties.
