Dracaena Massangeana, also known as Corn or Cane Plant, is an easy-care houseplant with large, strappy foliage sure to brighten up any area of your home. It has green leaves with brighter yellow-green centers. Dracaena Massangeana will freshen up any indoor environment and has the additional benefit of being a top plant to filter toxins out of the air.
Best Locations For Growing Dracaena Massangeana
Keep Dracaena between 65-78 degrees F with plenty of bright indirect light. Avoid placing it near cold drafts and in temperatures below 55 degrees.
Dracaena Massangeana Sunlight Requirements
This Dracaena prefers medium to bright indirect. Avoid direct sunlight as this can burn or bleach the leaves.
Dracaena Massangeana Care
The thick trunk-like stems on Dracena Massangeana help store excess water, so be mindful not to overwater, which can turn the stems mushy and lower leaves yellow. Dracaenas are hardy houseplants and will do well in most environments, but they do appreciate occasional misting and additional humidity in the air. Trim off any discolored leaves or tips.
Watering Dracaena Massangeana
Mist the leaves and top of the soil often or consider adding a humidifier. If you notice the tips of the leaves turning brown, give Massangeana a good drink using filtered or distilled water. Allow the top of the soil to dry out slightly before watering. Make sure the pot has ample drainage holes.
Feeding Dracaena Massangeana
Dracaena Massangeana will benefit from regular feedings with diluted, balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer during the growing season, spring through summer. Browning leaf margins are often a sign of over-fertilization or fluoride in the water. If you see this, stop fertilizing and give the plant a good soak using filtered or distilled water, allowing water to thoroughly drain out of the bottom of the pot.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
