Dracaena Lemon Lime in a matte brown cylinder.

Where to put it

Give it a bright corner of the living room or an entrance, one to two metres from a window. It likes to be seen from a distance, so leave some empty wall behind it.

Light

Bright light without direct sun. Too little light and the lime edges fade to plain green. Strong afternoon sun through glass will scorch the leaves.

Watering

Water when the top 4 to 5 cm of soil is dry, roughly every 10 to 14 days. Pour slowly until the soil is evenly moist and never leave it standing in water.

Feeding

A diluted liquid feed once a month from March to October. Nothing in winter.

If something looks wrong

• Brown leaf tips. Usually dry air from the AC or tap water. Move it away from the vent and use filtered water.
• Yellow lower leaves. Too much water. Let the soil dry further before the next watering.
• Leaning canes. It is reaching for light. Turn the pot a quarter turn every two weeks.

Pets: Not safe for cats and dogs if chewed.

turn it every two weeks so it grows straight
