Description
Dracaena marginata 'Magenta' is a striking twist on the classic dragon tree, with deep green, narrow leaves edged in vivid reddish-pink. Bold and architectural, it brings instant height and colour to any space — and it barely asks for anything in return. If you love your plants tall, spiky, and super chill, this one’s a keeper.
Plant Care
Light:
Thrives in bright, indirect light, but will tolerate medium or lower light too. Too much direct sun may fade the colour or crisp the tips.
Watering:
Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. It’s drought-tolerant and hates soggy roots. Sensitive to fluoride — use filtered or rainwater if possible.
Temperature:
Happy in 18–26°C. Keep it above 12°C and avoid cold draughts or sudden temperature dips.
Potting:
Loves our A Sandy Loam mix — light, free-draining, and perfect for avoiding soggy roots.
Hot tips:
Wipe leaves occasionally to keep them dust-free and glossy. If it gets leggy, prune the top — it’ll reshoot below the cut and become even bushier over time.
Pet Friendly: No
