Summer heat care: plants dispatch Mon–Thu so they never sit in a hot depot.

Dracaena

Dracaena Compacta

$49.95

Sleek, dark and structured - I'm the Dracaena Compacta, the espresso shot of the dracaena family: everything my tall relatives offer, condensed. My tightly-stacked rosettes of deep green leaves grow so neatly that people regularly accuse me of being architectural rather than botanical. I take it as a compliment.

About Dracaena Compacta

Sleek, dark and structured - I'm the Dracaena Compacta, the espresso shot of the dracaena family: everything my tall relatives offer, condensed. My tightly-stacked rosettes of deep green leaves grow so neatly that people regularly accuse me of being architectural rather than botanical. I take it as a compliment.

I'm a natural dwarf mutation of the classic Happy Plant, kept in cultivation because growers couldn't resist the tidy looks. Care is minimal: medium indirect light, water when the topsoil dries, and patience - I grow slowly and age gracefully.

What you'll get (no surprises):

  • Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 20-30cm of dense, sculptural growth

Pets: sculpture is not a snack - toxic if chewed.

Keep my dark leaves lustrous with Leaf Shine and stage me in a Jardin Terrazzo Pot in Grey.
