Growing Non-GMO Dracaena Indivisa Flower Seeds

Indivisa dracaena seeds are directly sown after the frost but, for the earliest spring starts begin indoors 10-12 weeks prior. Pre-soak the seeds for 3-5 days before planting. Use grow lights and heating pads to ensure germination and persistence. Dracaena is popularly grown as an indoor perennial houseplant but will thrive outdoors in warm winters. Harden off to a warm but shady spot in the garden when transplanting outside, since mature plants will require shade. Plants need shade during the summer heat, and soil must be consistently moist or dehydrates quickly. Water the plants regularly, but allow the soil to dry between irrigations.

Transplant the seedlings once they have true leaves and good roots. Dracaena plants rarely bloom and are prized primarily for their foliage. Some foliage dieback is normal and can safely be removed. Fertilize only during the summertime. Allow the plant to go dormant during the winter by reducing water and fertilizer. Protect the plants from intense, direct sun for long hours. Mature plants will develop a stem and then eventually a trunk structure. Remove dying leaves at the base of the plant to encourage this. In the wintertime when indoor air can be dry, mist the plants to simulate humidity and prevent dry tips.

Dracaena Indivisa as a Houseplant

Dracaenas are some of the most well-known houseplants available. They can add height and interest to any planter and play well with other plants or make striking statements alone. Although they rarely ever flower indoors, they are perfect for adding an exotic texture and feeling to spaces. Be conscious to put these plants in rooms that are used often and have frequent light. A dark, rarely used guest bedroom is a coffin for these tropical beauties. A bright window near a bathroom (or another humid room) is perfect!

Landscape Use of Dracaena Indivisa

Indivisa dracaena complements other tropical palms for low-maintenance commercial and residential landscaping. When they are young, they look similar to a yucca but less rigid. When they are older, they resemble thin-leaved palm trees. Use them in seasonal, decorative pots and then overwinter them indoors. If you live in a climate with warm winters, these can stay outside all year round for an exotic look.

About Dracaena Indivisa Garden Seeds

Dracaenas are very slow growers and should be planted at least 1-2 years before you want them for decorative purposes. Be patient, and they will reward you with years and years of beauty. In good conditions, these plants can live indefinitely!

All parts of this plant are poisonous to animals and humans. Don’t ingest it, and keep it away from cats or dogs who have a propensity for eating foliage.

Mealybugs can hide in the tiny crevices where the leaves connect to the stem. Gently pull them away (without yanking or breaking them off) and look for waxy or colored masses inside. Treat with rubbing alcohol or another remedy if they are present.

Cordyline indivisa, more commonly known as Dracaena or Mountain Palm, is a sole native to New Zealand where it grows abundantly and in a variety of cultivars. Although only naturalized in New Zealand, dracaena is by far one of the world’s most popular indoor ornamental plants, thriving in the constant year-round warm temperatures of a living room or office building.
