★★★★Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd
Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd. De plant kwam een beetje beschadigd aan. Door dat de bladeren op een onjuiste manier in de doos waren gestopt. Verder is het een mooie plant.
Ik ben blij verrast! Een mooie uitziende plant en goed verpakt ontvangen. Bij de mededeling vroeg ik of zij wilde kijken naar een rechtopstaande plant en als het kan iets groter dan aangegeven maat. Daar heeft de kweker ook goed...

All about
The Dracaena dossier
Dracaena
The Dracaena grows in the tropics of Africa, where some species grow into centuries-old trees. Its name means dragon's blood tree, after the red resin that some species produce.
In the home, the Dracaena has an architectural appearance: characterful trunks with crowns of graceful, often drawn leaves.

Placement and light
The Dracaena has few requirements: a place with average light is enough, although it grows faster the lighter it is. Only avoid bright afternoon sun on the leaves.
It is also easy in terms of temperature; above 12 degrees is fine. Variegated leaves keep their markings best in a lighter spot.
Water and feeding
The Dracaena drinks little: only water when the top half of the potting soil feels dry. In summer, once a week is more than sufficient, in winter once every two to three weeks.
Too much water is the biggest pitfall; the thick trunks store moisture themselves. Feeding is only necessary once a month during the growing season.
Is something wrong with your Dracaena?
Yellow leaves and a soft trunk indicate too much water. Brown leaf tips indicate dry air or fluorine in tap water; spraying helps. It is normal that the bottom leaf gradually falls off, so the characteristic bare trunk grows. Check sticky leaves for scale.
A Dracaena grows slowly and only needs to be repotted once every three years, preferably in the spring. Choose a slightly larger, stable pot and well-drained soil. You can find the matching decorative pots directly on this page.
Toxic to pets?
The Dracaena contains saponins and is poisonous to cats and dogs. Cats in particular like to nibble on the long leaves, causing salivation and vomiting. Place it out of reach of pets or choose an animal-friendly alternative.
The Dracaena grows quietly and compactly; its trunks only grow a few centimeters longer each year. Large specimens are therefore many years old and retain their shape almost automatically.
A Dracaena fragrans keeps growing slowly indoors. This Dracaena 'Cintho' is already 200 cm tall on delivery including nursery pot, in a ø27 cm pot. If it gets too tall, you can shorten a stem; it will sprout again below the cut.
Where is the best place for a Dracaena Cintho?
In a bright spot without direct sun. It tolerates semi-shade well, so it can also stand in a hallway or office. Avoid draughts and the warm air directly above a radiator.
How often should you water a Dracaena Cintho?
Water when the top few centimetres of the potting soil are dry, in summer about once every week to ten days. Less in winter. Never leave water standing in the pot, as that causes root rot.
Is a Dracaena Cintho toxic to cats and dogs?
Yes. According to the ASPCA, the Dracaena Cintho is toxic to cats and dogs. Chewing the leaves can cause vomiting, drooling and reduced appetite. Keep it out of reach if your pet likes to nibble on plants.
Why are the lower leaves of my Dracaena Cintho turning yellow?
The lower leaves slowly turning yellow and dropping is part of how a dragon tree grows. If many leaves turn yellow at once, the potting soil is often too wet. After the move it may also drop some leaves while it settles in.
How is a 200 cm Dracaena Cintho delivered?
The Dracaena Cintho travels upright in its own plant box, with the crown in a paper sleeve and the pot secured. Large plants are delivered by our own courier, and in frost or heat a heat pack or cold pack is included. If the plant arrives damaged, send us photos and we will arrange a solution.
