Dracaena Marginata 'Cane'

Adding a tropical touch to any indoor space, the Dracaena Marginata 'Cane' is an exquisite houseplant native to Madagascar. Its long, slender leaves, colored in striking shades of deep green with red-edged margins, lend it an air of elegance and exotic beauty. As it grows, it develops a cane-like stem, earning it the 'Cane' in its name, reaching a height of up to 6 feet indoors, though in its natural habitat it can grow much taller. The Dracaena Marginata 'Cane' has a distinct growth pattern, with its leaves forming a plume at the top of each stem, giving the appearance of a stylish, modern living sculpture. It can be grown singularly for a minimalist aesthetic or in groups for a more lush, tropical feel. As it ages, it sheds its lower leaves, revealing an attractive, grayish-brown bark that adds to its overall appeal. While it may seem intimidating in size and appearance, the Dracaena Marginata 'Cane' is quite an easy-going plant. It can adapt to lower light conditions, making it an excellent choice for office spaces or homes with limited sunlight. It's also a slow grower, so it won't quickly outgrow its pot or space. However, if given the right conditions and care, it can display a faster growth rate and even produce tiny, fragrant white flowers – a rare and delightful sight in indoor settings. In terms of care, the Dracaena Marginata 'Cane' prefers well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly, as it is susceptible to root rot if overwatered. It's also sensitive to fluoride found in tap water, so using filtered or rainwater can help keep this plant healthy and vibrant. Perhaps one of the most remarkable features of this plant is its air-purifying qualities. It's recognized by NASA's Clean Air Study for its ability to remove harmful toxins from the air, contributing to a healthier living environment. With its dramatic foliage, easy-care nature, and air-purifying benefits, the Dracaena Marginata 'Cane' is more than just a houseplant – it's a statement piece that brings a slice of the tropics into your home.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
