Janet Craig Dracaena Plants for Sale Online
Janet Craig Dracaena plants are lush, green-leaved houseplant that cleans the air indoors. The dark green leaves are broad and arch slightly, creating a very graceful form.
Botanically referred to as 'Dracaena Fragrans,' Dracaena Janet is an easy-to-care for houseplant that does well in a range of different conditions. Ideal conditions for the Janet Craig plants include medium to bright indirect light levels and a well draining potting soil. However these popular indoor plants are pretty hardy and also work as a great low light plant.
Dracena are not too needy when it comes to their watering regimen, but it is best to allow your plants' soil to dry in between waterings. Additionally, we recommend opting for a distilled or purified water as opposed to tap water. As a means of protecting your plants' root systems, plant your Dracaena in a container with a drainage hole.
For optimal growth, we recommend applying a well-balanced fertilizer blend in the growing months of spring and summer. Once they get growing, these house plants can really fill a space! This makes them ideal floor plants and space fillers for a room.
The Janet Craig plant is an excellent choice for first-time houseplant buyers because it handles missed watering, minimal light, and a wide range of other conditions without consequence. Janet Craig is just one variety in a large group of hybrids within the Dracaena family. Other varieties are green, red, yellow, white, and usually a mix of several colors.
