Dracaena margenata — aka the dragon tree — has to be one of our favorite ornamental houseplants. This tiny tree has thin, candelabra-shaped trunks that become more visible as it grows. Its spiky leaves are lined with red, making it even more striking. It's fairly forgiving — great for beginners — and can grow quite large. Use it to add some height to your indoor jungle, and trim it regularly to keep it shorter than six feet.
Native to the islands of Madagascar, Mauritius and the Indian Ocean.
The name dracaena is derived from the romanized form of the Ancient Greek δράκαινα – drakaina, "female dragon".
I love it! I was so impressed with my first purchase of 2 plants (see the White Stripe Dragon Tree in the mirror?) that I immediately came back and bought the tropical collection of 4 which are also all beautiful and stunning. Every day is a struggle to not buy more!!
Arrived in superb condition! Pretty palm. Thanks again Lively root :)
Beautiful plant!
My mom was so happy and the transaction was easy and quick!
Arrived in great condition and thriving in my living room; the pot is super nice and the internal grow pot allows for drainage. Will probably repot next year into a larger pot!
I love my new Marginata plant. I hope my thumb is green enough!
