The popular tropical plant is fairly drought tolerant and can sustain a significant amount of neglect.

Their bright yellow and green leaves are brightest and happiest when grown in a bright indirect light, making them perfect plants for a windowsill or sunroom in your home.

Other important plant care practices to note with this plant include providing high humidity levels, and consistent room temperatures of 65-75°F. Additionally, you should fertilize this plant in the growing months of spring and summer.

Common problems with this plant include yellowing leaf tips--often indicating the plant wants more moisture in the form of humidity levels or watering. Root rot is another dreaded problem that will occur as a result of too much water. To find that happy medium, we recommend letting your soil dry out in between waterings and using a well draining potting mix.

As these house plants mature, it is completely natural for the bottom leaves to turn yellow and die off. This is not a cause for concern, for you can simply remove the lower leaves and your Dracaena should continue to put out new growth. If leaves continue to die, we recommend checking your Song of India for common plant pests such as spider mites.
