This link will tell you what you need to know! It is toxic.

I have Dracaena Janet Craig plant and the leaves are getting yellow spots then turning brown. Help...?

The plant 3 feet tall and is currently indoors and getting indirect light and about 16oz of water per week. The leaves first get yellow spots then turn completely yellow and then brown and die off...What can I do to save this plant?

I have Dracaena Janet Craig plant and the leaves are getting yellow spots then turning brown. Help...?
Leaves that turn brown often indicate a build-up of salt in the soil. To correct this condition, take the plant where you can water the plant until soaking wet and in the process leech out the soil. Put it back indoors where it will get low to medium light. Allow the soil to dry between waterings. It also needs medium humidity. If you can, fertilize at least once a month.
Reply:could be over watering or to much lime in the soil. this article has some great tips about gardening that might help you better

I have a house plant called pleomele[dracaena reflexa] is it dangerouse to animals?

Yes to cats, Dracaena's have a very toxic root system, and in late fall, the leaves become highly toxic. Cats seem to get a nervous tremor from eating it, like epilepsy.

I dont think dracene is dangerous to animals. the animals have a special scent maybe they would bite the plant but if it is poisonous they will let it down. U can keep ur plant in good shape and take care of it.

I have a very leggy dragon tree (Dracaena sp.) - how can I make it look nice again?

Please help - this dragon tree was a present and I loathe throwing plants away, but it's gone all leggy (about 3 foot long and very bendy) with hardly any leaves - can I prune it?

Air layer: wet sphagnum moss around stem, clear plastic around moss. when you see new roots through the plastic, cut the stem below the plastic and plant.





Cut it back to desired height, dip the cut (off) end in rooting hormone and pot. Put pot in a zip type bag, seal, place in sunny south window. when you see new leaves, you have roots. The mother plant will send out auxilliary shoots.





Do recommend moving it to a sunnier location. Legginess is an indicator the plant is reaching for light.





good luck
Reply:Yes - If the plant’s stems become too long and bare, cut them off at the desired height and new leaves will soon appear.

Received a DRACAENA plant?

live in zone 7 pacific northwest. How will I be able to keep it alive and enjoy it?

Received a DRACAENA plant?
Dracaenas are a varied species, but in general the ones with canes need to dry out a bit before watering, need bright indirect light. The roots can be temperamental so be careful watering. If the plant gets too tall you can cut it back and root the top. I have success just cutting the top and sticking it back in the soil, watering liberally. Watch for spider mites (plant will yellow, leaves will feel dirty, webs) wash them off. Mealy bug can be a problem too. They need temperatures above 55 so they aren't hardy outside. Find out what kind you have and then you can tailor the care to the plant.
Reply:just don't let it freeze. they are very easy to grow -- lucky bamboo that everyone sticks in rocks is actaully not a bamboo but dracaena. they adapt well to indoor conditions better than most. just keep it watered and give it a spot with a lot of indirect light.

Does anyone have a dracaena grass/spike at home or have any experiences with it? If so, please click here!!!!

Do you recommnend a dracaena spike/grass in a pot or the garden? How tall do they tend to grow? Please answer!

If its like the ones I have, I grow them in pots with regular soil, and they can get pretty big. The more water you give, the more they grow, and you can keep them in relatively dry soil (a little more water in the spring and summer though). My one plant is probably about 4 feet tall and still growing. But they're great plants though, I highly recommend them. One tip: put several in a pot together, cuz as they grow they will start to drop the bottom leaves and leave a bare stem, so having a few together keeps it from looking strange, sickly or Dr. Seuss-ish. But overall it's one of my favorite plants!
Reply:Hi-It depends are where you live and what kind of dracena you buy. Typical annual dracena spikes used in the mid-west and northeast, that are for planters, will grow about 18-24".





There are plently of other dracenas, including the houseplants, which get 6' and higher, depending on conditions. Of course, if you are in warm climate, that type of dracena may be an outdoor plant to you.
Reply:Spikes are annuals and are normally put in pots and hanging baskets. They will grow between 2 1/2 to 4 ft. They are easy to grow and very hardy, even living through the winter in certain areas.
Reply:Actually, I bought one yesterday Dragon Tree (Dracaena Bicolour) the information on the label that came with it says


Position - Good natural light in a warm room avoid direct sunlight and draughts. Temperature - Warm (a bit vague)


Watering - Keep well watered during growing/flowering season. Keep moist during winter. Do not allow compost to become waterlogged. Feeding - Feed regularly with baby-bio houseplant feed during growing season. Other information - Remove dead blooms to prolong flowering period. Use leafshine wipes for cleaning. Hope this helps, but there are no sign of flowers/blooms on my plant. My plant is about 18 ins. there were others in the store about 3/4 ft tall.

How do I care for my dracaena compata?
