Dracaena Compacta is the most orderly member of the dragon tree family: tight rosettes of short, deep green leaves stacked along a slim stem. Her dense, sculpted look gives her something of a green work of art, and she grows slowly enough to keep it that way. She is happy in spots where many plants give up, including offices and hallways. A composed green friend that brings quiet structure to your urban jungle.
Your dracaena is one of the most forgiving green friends out there. She prefers bright, indirect light but accepts shadier spots, where variegated types just colour a little softer. Water about once every two weeks, letting the top half of the soil dry out first; she would always rather be too dry than too wet. She prefers rainwater or filtered water, as fluoride in tap water can cause brown leaf tips. Feed lightly in spring and summer and repot every three years or so. Keep her out of reach of cats and dogs, since her leaves are not pet-friendly.

Your order will be hand picked and packed in our strong and sustainable packaging as soon as possible, after which it will be delivered straight from our greenhouse to your door by your chosen carrier. You can follow the journey of your plants via the tracking link you receive in your mail. If you have any questions regarding your order and its shipment, you can get in contact with our support team.
We expect every order to arrive in tip-top shape. We take intensive care of the plants in our greenhouse and use special and as sustainable as possible protective packaging to ship our plants. We also wrote an extensive blog about how to unpack and prepare your plants for growth after shipping. However there are rare occasions where our plants don’t meet their full potential. That’s why all plants are guaranteed for 30 days after arrival, if still in its original nursery pot.
Everything about Dracaena
Dracaena plants are incredibly popular as houseplants worldwide. The ones you'll see most often are Dracaena Marginata and Dracaena Fragrans. You might also know them by other names, like Corn Plant, Dragon Tree, or Cornstalk Dracaena. What's really fun about these plants is that they look like tiny trees.
The word Dracaena comes from the Ancient Greek word Drakaina, meaning "female dragon". With about 120 recognised species, the Dracaena family is not particularly large. This family is native to Africa, South Asia, northern Australia and Central America.
