Care Guide for Your Dracaena Song of India:

• Light: Loves bright, indirect light. Ample light is essential to maintain its stunning yellow variegation. It can tolerate medium light, but colors may fade.

• Water: Water moderately. Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. It is drought-tolerant and susceptible to overwatering.

• Soil: A well-draining, peat-based potting mix is ideal.

• Humidity: Enjoys average to high humidity but is adaptable. Regular misting or a pebble tray can keep the leaves looking their best.

• Pro Tip: Wipe the leaves gently with a damp cloth every few weeks to remove dust and allow the beautiful colors to shine brightly.
