Meet Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime'—the upright striped houseplant with bright lime, green and cream leaves. Tall, tidy and low-fuss, she brings instant colour and structure without needing collector-level care.

  • The Formal Name: Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime'
  • The Nickname: Lemon Lime Dragon Plant
  • Roots: A colourful cultivar of Dracaena fragrans, grown as a woody tropical foliage houseplant.
  • Natural Vibe: Warm indoor rooms with bright filtered light, occasional drying between waterings and no cold draughts.

Care Guide
  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: Bright indirect light keeps the lemon-lime striping vivid. She copes with moderate light, but avoid harsh direct sun.
  • Best Room: A hallway, office, living room or bedroom where you want upright height without a sprawling footprint.
  • Snacks: Feed lightly in spring and summer. Dracaena can be sensitive to overfeeding, so diluted feed is best.
  • Tropical Feels: Average home humidity is usually fine. Very dry air may brown tips, especially near radiators.
  • Cosy Factor: Keep warm and away from cold draughts. Avoid prolonged cold conditions.
  • Thirst: Let the top half of the compost dry before watering again. She prefers slightly drier care to constantly wet roots.
  • Safety First: Not pet-safe – keep away from cats, dogs and children who may chew the leaves.
  • The Bedding: Use a free-draining houseplant mix with perlite. Make sure the pot drains freely.
  • Family Tree: Can be propagated from cane or stem cuttings by confident growers.
  • Space Needs: Upright and architectural, ideal where floor space is limited but height is useful.
  • Speed: Slow to moderate indoors, holding its shape well over time.
  • Uninvited Guests: Watch for scale, mealybug and spider mites, especially in dry rooms.
  • Moving Day: Repot only when roots fill the pot. Dracaena are happier slightly snug than overpotted.
  • Haircut: Remove old lower leaves as they age. Brown tips can be trimmed neatly if needed.
  • Fresh Air: Likes fresh but warm air; avoid cold blasts from doors and windows.
  • Plant Lore: Dracaena are popular office plants because they give strong shape while asking for very little fuss.
