Summary

The Dragon Tree 'White Stripe' is a stunning, low-maintenance houseplant that adds a touch of sophistication to any space. With its glossy, lance-shaped leaves adorned with white stripes running down the outside, this variety of Dracaena offers a striking contrast of dark green and bright white. Its upright, architectural form makes it a fantastic choice for brightening up corners, offices, or modern interiors.

This plant thrives in bright, indirect light, but it can also adapt to lower light conditions, though it may not grow as quickly. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. Overwatering is a common mistake, so ensure the plant is not sitting in excess water, as this can lead to root rot.

The 'White Stripe' is not only easy to care for but also has air-purifying properties, helping to improve the quality of the air in your home. It’s a perfect option for those seeking a striking yet low-maintenance addition to their indoor plant collection. However, be cautious, as it can be toxic to pets if ingested, so keep it out of reach of animals.
