Corn Plant care guide
Dracaena fragrans
Easy care⚠️ 🐾
Corn Plant (Dracaena fragrans) does best when watered about every 14 days. It stores moisture well, so let the soil dry out completely between waterings — overwatering is the fastest way to kill it.
Place it in bright indirect light. Humidity needs are average room. The comfortable temperature range is 18–27°C. During the growing season, feed it about every 30 days.
Care difficulty: easy — great for beginners.
⚠️ Pet safety: Corn Plant is toxic to cats and dogs. Saponins, vomiting. Keep it out of reach, and if your pet chews it, contact a vet.
