Dracaena Janet Lind – Branched – HydroCare
The HydroCare branched version of Dracaena Janet Lind is slightly variegated with dark green leaves and a few lighter green stripes running down their length.
A tall growing, upright species, Janet Lind looks great as an elegant floor specimen and is a perfect foliage plant to sit next to something tropical with deeper variegation or colour such as Aglaonema, Calathea or Codiaeum Petra. As with all Dracaena, Janet Lind is known for its ability to purify the surrounding air. Perfect for urban environments.
HydroCare – Dracaena Janet Lind Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Feeling the Chill! These warm climate plants are susceptible to temperatures of 12°C or lower. Leaves will curl and can dry up and die.
Grow with the flow! If your plant is feeling a bit bare and you want to get it to branch-out, simply cut away one or two stems. New growth will start below the cut.
Disguised with dust? Have your broad leaves lost their lustre? Dust with warm water and a clean cloth. Try to avoid the leaf shine as it will do more damage than dusting.
Light
Dracaena fragrans Janet Lind is one of the more shade tolerant varieties of Dracaena. Place in low to bright indirect light for best results. Avoid direct sunlight.
Watering
Keep an eye on the water meter. Water when the meter has been on minimum for 7 to 10 days. For more information, check out our HydroCare set up guide.
Temperature
The Janet Lind prefers average household temperatures between 16-24°C but can cope with as low as 12°C for short periods.
