20 Foot Dracaena - Ikea and Plant Care For Anyone

The “giant Dracaena owners” Carole and Tola Oduyoye claims not to follow anything unusual in caring for their Dracaena fragrans. And I would agree!

After receiving so many questions on Dracaena care I wrote a care book on Dracaenas where I shared my 25 plus years of plant growing experience with these versatile plant.
