Dracaena 'Lemon Lime'

Dracaena Lemon Lime 🍋🌿 stands out with long striped leaves in green, lime, and yellow, giving any room a bright tropical look without needing a lot of fuss. It does best in bright indirect light indoors, where the color stays strongest and it adds easy height to offices, living rooms, and lower-maintenance corners of the house. This is a generally forgiving plant that works well for beginners, as long as it is not kept too wet. Pro tip: if the leaf tips start browning, check your watering routine and make sure the soil is not staying soggy for too long 🚰.
