Dracaena Massangeana

Botanical Name: Dracaena fragrans 'Massangeana'
Common Name(s): Corn Plant, Massangeana Dracaena, Dracaena Massangeana

The Dracaena Massangeana commonly known as the Corn Plant, is a popular and easy-to-grow houseplant valued for its striking appearance and minimal care requirements. The plant has long, glossy, lance-shaped leaves that are a rich, deep green with creamy yellow stripes running down the center of each leaf. This variegation gives the plant a distinctive, elegant look, making it a favorite for adding vertical height and a touch of tropical flair to indoor spaces. The Corn Plant's compact size and attractive foliage also make it a great choice for home and office environments, where it can brighten corners or serve as a focal point in larger rooms.

Native to tropical Africa, this Dracaena thrives in warm, humid environments but is highly adaptable to average indoor conditions, making it a suitable choice for beginner plant owners. In the wild, it can grow into a tree-like form, reaching up to 10 feet (3 meters) tall, but indoors, it typically remains more compact, growing up to 4-6 feet (1.2–1.8 meters) in height. Its slow growth rate and easy care requirements make it a great addition to both small and larger spaces.

The Corn Plant does best in bright, indirect light, which helps maintain its beautiful variegated foliage. It can tolerate low light, but the growth may slow down, and the variegation may become less pronounced. Direct sunlight should be avoided, as it can cause the leaves to scorch, leading to brown spots and tips. It prefers temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C) and should be kept away from cold drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations.

This Dracaena thrives in well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry to the touch. Overwatering can cause root rot, so ensure that the plant is not left sitting in standing water. Like many other Dracaena varieties, it is more tolerant of underwatering than overwatering, making it a forgiving plant for busy owners. When watering, make sure the pot has proper drainage to avoid excess moisture at the base.

As a bonus, the Dracaena Massangeana is known for its air-purifying properties. It can help remove harmful indoor toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene, making it not only a visually appealing plant but also a beneficial addition to your indoor environment.

Note: This plant is toxic to children & pets, particularly cats and dogs, if ingested. It contains saponins, which can cause digestive issues. Keep this plant out of reach. Handle the plant with care when pruning or repotting.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Handle with care as the sap can irritate the skin.
  2. Fertilize once a month: Feed your plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once a month during the growing season.
  3. Prune regularly: Prune your Dracaena to remove damaged or leggy stems and encourage bushier growth.
  4. Reduce fertilizing in Winter: During the fall and winter, the plant's growth slows down, so reduce or stop fertilizing during this period.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
