Growing Tips
Dracaena 'Janet Craig' is one of the most forgiving indoor plants for beginners, thriving on neglect and low light conditions. NASA research confirms it removes formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene from indoor air, making it a powerful air-purifying plant. Wipe leaves monthly to remove dust and maximize photosynthesis. Brown leaf tips indicate fluoride sensitivity - use filtered water if this occurs. This slow-growing plant maintains its elegant shape with minimal pruning.
