Dracaena 'Perlata-umbra' care

Among the quieter members of the genus, Dracaena 'Perlata-umbra' forms an upright clump and settles quickly indoors.

Position it in bright indirect light and rotate the pot monthly for even growth. Water weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

It is happiest at occasional misting in dry rooms, potted in standard mix cut with a third perlite. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
