How to maintain a beautiful and healthy Dracaena Lisa
Maintenance - A little trim is all that most Dracaena Lisa’s need to keep their foliage looking fresh!
Trimming & reshaping - If your Dracaena Lisa experiences browning at its leaf tips, this can be remedied by trimming leaves with clean, sharp scissors or shears. Follow the natural direction of the leaf as you manicure it.
Cleaning - You can clean your Dracaena Lisa’s foliage and trunks by gently wiping it down with a soft cloth, or a mixture of gentle soap and water.Repotting - Dracaena Lisas are moderate to slow growers, and repotted is typically not necessary within the first couple years.
When to repot - when your Dracaena Lisa’s roots tightly encircle its pot or many stick out, it may be time to repot.
Pot sizing - if you want your plant to grow taller, select a pot that’s 2” in diameter larger than your Dracaena Lisa’s current pot. If you prefer for your plant to stay the same height, its original nursery pot can be re-used, and the soil simply refreshed.
Get your hands dirty - spread out newspaper on the floor, remove the plant from the pot and shake off as much of the old soil as possible so that you have clean roots. Place the plant in the center of the pot, add new soil and pat down firmly. Water the soil thoroughly and place the plant in an area with bright indirect light. Your plant will take 2-4 weeks to settle from the shock and adjust to its new home.
How to Propagate the Dracaena Lisa
Dracaena Lisas can be propagated from top cuttings. Simply cut a portion from the very top of your Dracaena Lisa below a leaf line. Place the cutting in a container of moist soil or a glass of water. When roots form, re-pot into a new container with fresh, moist soil.
