Dracaena Fragrans Rikki - Corn Plant
-
Height: Approx. 180 cm
-
Light: Place Dracaena fragrans 'Rikki' in moderate to bright indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may grow more slowly and show less vibrant variegation. Avoid direct sunlight, especially intense afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.
-
Watering: Allow the top inch or so of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly when watering, ensuring that excess water drains away freely from the pot. Reduce watering in winter when growth slows down.
-
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix formulated for indoor plants. A mix designed for tropical plants or a blend of peat moss, perlite, and compost works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
-
Fertilizing: Feed Dracaena fragrans 'Rikki' with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows down.
-
Pruning and Maintenance: Remove any yellow or dead leaves promptly to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's appearance. Wipe the leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them glossy.
