Dracaenas are popular among indoor plant enthusiasts due to their easygoing demeanour and the drama they give to any area. The Compacta, as the name implies, is a closely trimmed species that does not alter form and grows gradually over time, making it an excellent choice for many households. Your go-to option for low-light locations in your house.
Plant Care
Fertilizer/ feed for the plant: Feed the Dracaena plant once or twice a year with a slow-releasing fertiliser.
Repotting : Because it is a slow growing type, it will not need to be replanted frequently. When it outgrows its present container, move it to a little bigger container with a well-draining soil mix.
Propogation : The Dracaena plant is propagated through stem cutting. Immerse it in water until the roots emerge, then pot it in appropriate soil.
Typical issues
