Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta'

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' is a red-edged dragon tree cultivar with slim green leaves and vivid magenta margins. The colour sits along the leaf edge, so the plant keeps a narrow outline while adding a strong red-purple accent.

Its growth comes from slender woody canes that carry tufts of pointed leaves at their tips. As the stems lengthen, the plant develops a light tree-like silhouette with space between the foliage heads. Cutting back a tall cane can restart growth lower on the stem and help maintain a fuller indoor shape.

  • Leaf colour: Deep green blades edged with reddish-magenta margins.
  • Growth habit: Slim woody canes with narrow leaf tufts at the tips.
  • Indoor size control: Can be pruned to manage height and encourage branching.
  • Container outline: Red-edged foliage on narrow canes keeps the plant slim in a pot.

Red-Margined Leaves on Woody Canes

This cultivar belongs to Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia, the western Indian Ocean dragon-tree variety formerly known as Dracaena marginata. The variety’s natural form is a shrub or tree, and 'Magenta' keeps that cane-forming structure indoors on a smaller scale.

The narrow leaves show their strongest colour along the margins. Bright filtered light keeps new leaves firmer, while overly harsh sun can scorch the leaf surface. The stems and leaves tolerate short dry spells, but constant wetness around the roots can lead to soft stems and root decline.

Care for a Red-Edged Dragon Tree

  • Light: Use bright indirect light near a window; introduce any direct sun slowly and avoid hot midday exposure.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly after the upper part of the mix has dried, then keep the saucer empty.
  • Potting: Choose a pot with drainage and avoid large jumps in pot size after repotting.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant above cool draughts, with steady indoor warmth around 18–27 °C.
  • Substrate: A mineral-aerated mix helps protect the roots from long wet periods.
  • Pruning: Shorten tall canes in spring or summer for easier regrowth and shape recovery.
  • Humidity: Average home humidity is acceptable, but a very dry room can make leaf tips crisp.
  • Feeding: Apply a diluted balanced fertiliser during active growth, then pause or reduce feeding in winter.

Colour and Root-Zone Troubleshooting

  • Dull new leaves: Move gradually into brighter filtered light if the plant has been kept far from a window.
  • Brown tips: Check for dry air, mineral buildup, hard water or fertiliser excess before changing the whole care routine.
  • Soft stems: Remove the plant from wet substrate and inspect the roots if a cane loses firmness.
  • Dry, bleached patches: Shift away from direct sun that hits the same leaves for several hours.
  • Small pests: Look for spider mites, scale or mealybugs on leaf bases and along older stems.

Safety for Pets

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep the plant out of reach and remove fallen leaves, especially in homes with pets that chew foliage.

Botanical Background

Dracaena comes from Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon. The species epithet reflexa means bent back sharply, and angustifolia means narrow-leaved. Dracaena marginata is an older synonym of Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia.

Dracaena reflexa var. angustifolia 'Magenta' has slim canes, defined height and red-edged foliage in a narrow potted form.

Your makeup won't get ruined! ❤️
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm new to skincare and I didn't know we were supposed to wear sunscreen! 😱 Turns out it's arguably the most important step of skincare. First, I like the texture of this sunscreen. It's not greasy, it's velvety and smooth. It feels nice on my skin. I used this for the first time yesterday, and I just want those of you to know who are considering buying this, it applies well against makeup! That was one of my main concerns. I did my skincare with this sunscreen as a final step, then put on my makeup. The sunscreen acted as a primer, honestly, so I skipped primer. When I reapplied the sunscreen hours later, my makeup didn't smear! Instead I had a nice, healthy glow to my skin. I actually think it enhanced my makeup; my makeup seemed to last longer than usual. If you find yourself to be TOO glowy after a while, just apply a bit of translucent powder and your makeup will stretch even longer. Bonus: It fits nicely in your purse! Good for people like me with a million things they insist on carrying around.

Daily Staple Sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with this sunscreen—it’s become a daily staple for my face and hands. The SPF 70 gives great peace of mind, especially with regular sun exposure, and it feels lightweight rather than heavy or greasy. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave that thick white cast, which is a huge plus for everyday wear. On my face, it layers well under makeup without pilling, and on my hands, it doesn’t feel sticky or transfer onto everything I touch. I also appreciate that it holds up well throughout the day without needing constant reapplication (unless I’m outside a lot). Overall, it’s a reliable, high-protection sunscreen that’s comfortable enough to use every day.

Works well when properly applied
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I try to always buy the highest SPF that I can find. This one fits the bill. If you apply it thoroughly all over and then reapply every few hours, you shouldn't get burned. I've worn it to the water park numerous times now. I have very sensitive skin, and it's given me no issues. I even put it on my face, just being careful not to get too close to my eye area. Once it absorbs into your skin, it doesn't feel too sticky like some other sunscreens can. Just be aware that it will leave a white residue on your bathing suit if you get it on there, but I've always been able to wash it out and that's a small price to pay for proper sun protection!

Excellent product.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Excellent product. The sun is extremely strong where I live, and I've been using this for several days now; it lasts a very long time on the skin. However, if you have very sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend using it on your face—in my case, it caused a breakout. But for the neck, body, and arms, it’s excellent. I highly recommend it, and it doesn't leave a bad feel on the skin or an unpleasant smell. If you use it in the water, it is recommended to reapply every hour and 20 minutes, otherwise you might get sunburned.

Solid sunscreen!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I just started using this sunscreen about a week ago. It doesn’t feel heavy on the skin, but as someone with a dark complexion, it will leave a faint white-cast at first. Simply just tap it into your skin more!
