Dracaena fragrans 'White Jewel'

The Dracaena fragrans 'White Jewel' is a variety of Dracaena with variegated leaves and is also known as "White Jewel Dracaena" due to its green leaves with white margins. Here's how to care for it:

1. Light: Place your Dracaena 'White Jewel' in a bright spot with indirect light. It tolerates a range of light levels, but prefers bright light without direct sun exposure. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

2. Temperature: This plant thrives in temperatures between 18°C and 24°C (64°F and 75°F). Avoid temperatures below 10°C (50°F), as they can damage the plant.

3. Watering: Keep the soil slightly moist, but do not let it get soggy. Water when the top layer of soil begins to dry. Reduce watering in winter, as the plant needs less water during its dormant period.

4. Humidity: The Dracaena 'White Jewel' appreciates moderate ambient humidity. You can increase humidity by placing a tray of water near the plant or by using a humidifier.

5. Soil: Use a high-quality potting mix for houseplants with good water retention and drainage capacity.

6. Fertilization: Fertilize your Dracaena 'White Jewel' during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half its recommended strength. Avoid fertilizing in autumn and winter when the plant is dormant.

7. Pruning: Regularly remove yellowed or damaged leaves to promote healthy growth.

8. Repotting: Repotting is generally not necessary frequently. Only repot when the plant becomes too root-bound, usually every 2 to 3 years.
