Dragon Tree

The dragon tree, scientifically known as Dracaena marginata, is a striking indoor plant with long, sword-shaped leaves that feature red or pink edges. Native to Madagascar, it's prized for its dramatic appearance and air-purifying qualities, removing toxins like formaldehyde from the air. Dragon trees thrive in bright, indirect light and prefer well-draining soil. They're relatively low-maintenance, requiring occasional watering when the soil is dry and periodic pruning to maintain their shape. With its unique aesthetic and easy care, the dragon tree is a popular choice for adding a touch of exotic flair to homes and offices.
