Instructions d'entretien

Dracaena masoniana thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. It prefers moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry, and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. This plant can adapt to indoor environments and is relatively easy to care for with proper attention.

Sol

Dracaena masoniana prefers well-draining soil, such as a loamy mix. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of potting soil with perlite or sand can help improve drainage.

Engrais

Fertilize Dracaena masoniana with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (10-10-10) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.

Rempotage

Repot Dracaena masoniana every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is one size larger and has drainage holes. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.

Propagation

Propagate Dracaena masoniana through leaf cuttings or by dividing the rhizomes. Take a healthy leaf cutting and allow it to callous over before planting it in moist soil. Alternatively, divide the rhizomes during repotting and plant them separately.

Taille

Prune Dracaena masoniana to remove any dead or damaged leaves. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts. Pruning can help maintain the plant's shape and encourage new growth.

Toxicité

Dracaena masoniana is toxic to pets, particularly cats and dogs. Ingestion can cause vomiting, drooling, and other symptoms. Keep the plant out of reach of pets and children to prevent accidental ingestion.
