FAQs
FAQs
Why are the leaf tips turning brown?
This is often caused by fluoride in tap water - try distilled or rainwater, as Dracaena is sensitive to fluoride.
How often does it need repotting?
It's slow-growing, so every 2-3 years is usually enough; refresh the topsoil in between.
Is it safe for pets?
No - Dracaena contains saponins and is toxic to cats and dogs, which can also show dilated pupils if they chew on it. Keep it well away from pets.
