Dracaena, the “dragon” plant, has many varieties, and the Song of India is one of the most beautiful.
With lance-like leaves of bright green edged in a creamy yellow, the Song of India has tropical glamour, but is very easy to maintain.
This plant requires requires bright, indirect sunlight for several hours a day, which will keep the foliage vibrant. However, too much sun can cause leaf scorch, so avoid direct sunlight.
Song of India is not very particular about its soil, but a well-drained potting mix is best. Water your plant often enough to keep its soil moist, but not soaked. Avoid overwatering this plant as it is susceptible to root rot. (You might want to use purified or bottled water instead of tap, as dracaena plants are sensitive to fluoride).
Because this is a plant native to the warm climate of the Indian Ocean, it doesn’t tolerate cold well, so keep it away from drafty areas and vents.
