Dracaena Rikki

Dracaena “Rikki” is a good plant for indoors with low or moderate light. If the yellow markings on the leaves begin to fade, move the plant into slightly brighter light but avoid direct, intense sunlight. Dracaena performs best with moderate amounts of water. To water dracaena, water the plant deeply and then allow the soil to drain thoroughly. Allow the top 2 inches of potting mixture to dry before the next watering. Dracaena “Rikki” benefits from a monthly feeding during spring and summer, using a standard liquid fertilizer for indoor plants. No fertilizer is advised during fall and winter, which is the plant’s dormant season. Dracaena is touchy about fluoride in the water. To prevent damage caused by high levels of fluoride, water the plant with bottled or distilled water.
