Species : Dracaena trifasciata Moonshine

🔖 Care Tips

It grows well unless damaged by low temperatures, as it is very resilient.

🏝️ Habitat Conditions

It primarily inhabits Africa. It thrives in warm places and is sensitive to cold, making it unable to survive outdoors during winter.

🪨 Soil Mix

It is best to plant in well-draining soil. A common mix ratio is 40% potting soil, 20% bark, 20% leaf mold, 10% perlite, and 10% charcoal. This can vary depending on conditions and environment.

🌡️ Environment

Temperature: 20~25°C, minimum temperature: 10°C. It's best to keep it indoors during winter. It grows well in dry indoor conditions, but higher humidity promotes better growth.

👀 Characteristics details

This is a succulent plant that stores water in its leaves. It is resistant to drought but sensitive to overwatering. The protruding part at the tip of the leaf is the growth point. If this part is removed, the plant will stop growing in length and the leaves will thicken sideways.

☀️ Light

If the light is too strong, the plant turns yellow, and if the light is too weak, the color fades overall. It is better to expose the plant to indirect light for a longer period rather than direct sunlight.

💧 Water

CAM plants perform photosynthesis at night, so it's better to water them at night rather than during the day. From spring to fall, water them as soon as the surface soil dries. In winter, water them when the inner soil is completely dry. If the leaves are curling or have grooves, it indicates a lack of water, so it's advisable to water them.

🌱 Propagate

Propagation is typically done by separating offsets that grow at the base during spring to summer, or by leaf cuttings. Use sterilized tools to cut 10-20 cm branches at an angle, dry them for 3-4 hours, and then plant them in soil or water, ensuring the original top side faces up. 1. For water propagation, avoid transparent containers. Place the stem in water, and once roots appear, use hydroponic fertilizer. If roots grow beyond 5-7 cm, transfer to soil. 2. For soil propagation, plant deeply in soil without fertilizer. After planting, avoid exposing cuttings to bright light. Gradually increase light exposure to help them adapt. Maintain high humidity and a temperature of 20-25°C.

🪴 Repot

It is best to repot every 2-3 years due to slow growth. If the pot is too large, leaves may turn or droop. It is better to plant in a smaller pot than a larger one.

💊 Fertilize

Using fertilizer once during spring and summer, while adhering to the recommended amount, can promote more vigorous growth.

🌺 Flower

When grown indoors, flowers are rarely seen.
