Dracaena Marginata: Commonly known as the “Dragon Tree”, a Dracaena Marginata is slender and has narrow, arched leaves that are edged in red or burgundy. Typically it’s grown as a multi-headed cane, making it ideal as a accent in living rooms, offices, and modern interiors. Marginata is one of the most adaptable indoor tropical plants that is valued for it’s ability to add height without overwhelming a space. Dracaena Marginata thrives in low to bright indirect light. While like a tropical plant it appreciates moderate humidity but handles normal household levels with ease, which is why it’s so widely used in commercial and residential settings.
