Dracaena Cordyline Red Star 10 Inches
Default Nursery Pot or Upgrade to a Chic Chive Pot
Our plants come in the standard nursery pot unless you opt for one of our snazzy Chive pots. Keep in mind, each plant is a unique snowflake—size, shape, and quirks may vary. We do our best to deliver a plant that resembles the online glam shot and will thrive in your home, but perfection is a tall order.
Pot Size vs. Plant Size: It’s Not You, It’s the Container
We like to keep things almost simple—plants are measured by the size of the pot they’re in, not how tall or fabulous they currently are. When someone says a plant is “in a 6-inches,” they’re talking about the diameter of the container, not the plant itself. That gorgeous fiddle leaf fig might be towering over your sofa while technically still being “in a 10-inch pot.” Height? Totally subjective. It depends on the plant species, its mood that day, and how mature it feels like being. So next time you’re plant shopping and wondering why your “small” monstera could double as a room divider—blame the pot. Not the plant.

How to take care of your Dracaena
The bold, stylish, and low-maintenance houseplant you need in your life that doesn't require a degree in botany to keep alive? Enter the Dracaena. This dramatic, spiky-leaved superstar is one of the most popular indoor plants for a reason (well, several reasons, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves). With over 100 different species and cultivars, Dracaena plants are as versatile as they are beautiful. Plus, they don’t throw a fit when you forget to water them. Here's a simple guide to ensure they stay that way.
Care Level
Easy: Low Maintenance
Dracaenas are some of the easiest indoor plants to grow. Their tolerance for low light and irregular watering schedules makes them perfect for busy folks, forgetful plant parents, or anyone who just wants a little green in their life without a lot of hassle.
Light Requirements
Dracaenas prefer bright, indirect light but are surprisingly tolerant of low light conditions. That being said, too much direct sun can scorch their leaves, so keep them out of the harsh afternoon rays. Think east- or north-facing windows or a bright room with filtered sunlight.
Watering
If there’s one plant that really doesn’t like wet feet, it’s the Dracaena. Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out before watering. Water every 2–3 weeks depending on the light and humidity levels in your home. In the winter, scale back even more. Overwatering = sad, mushy roots.
Humidity and Temperature
Dracaenas enjoy a bit of humidity, but they’re not going to protest if the air is dry. They’ll thrive in standard room humidity, though a light misting here and there can help keep their foliage looking sharp (and Instagram-ready).
Keep things cozy—Dracaenas like it between 65°F and 80°F (18°C–27°C). Avoid drafts and cold temperatures, which can cause leaf drop.
Soil
Well-draining potting mix is a must. A general-purpose indoor potting soil works well, especially if amended with a bit of perlite or sand to improve drainage.
Interaction with Pets
Unfortunately, no. Dracaena is not pet-friendly. It contains saponins, which can cause vomiting, drooling, and general stomach upset if ingested by cats or dogs. If you’ve got curious fur babies, place your Dracaena well out of reach—or consider a pet-safe plant instead.
Dracaena Family
Dracaena is a genus of tropical plants known for their bold foliage and upright, tree-like appearance. They hail from Africa, Asia, and Central America but have made themselves quite at home in living rooms, offices, and stylish apartments around the globe.
Known for their sculptural aesthetic and easygoing care needs, Dracaenas are perfect for both plant novices and seasoned green thumbs alike. You’ll often see them sold as “lucky plants,” and while we can’t promise they’ll change your life, they’ll definitely make your space look more put together.
The Self-Watering Pot Who’s More Responsible Than Most Roommates
Remembering to water your plants is a noble goal, but life happens (and sometimes Netflix just won’t pause itself). Stylish, smart, and suspiciously more nurturing than your last situationship. Ryan the self-watering pot has a built-in reservoir that keeps your green buddy hydrated without you having to lift a finger—Making sure your plant stays alive even when you forget it exists. Finally, a Ryan you can actually trust.
Feed Your Plants Like You Actually Know What You’re Doing
Your plants called—they're tired of your "just water and hope" approach. Give themVerteRx, the premium plant food packed with vitamins and growth boosters. Stronger roots, lusher leaves, and fewer judgmental stares from your fiddle-leaf fig. Because even plants deserve proper nutrition (unlike your diet).

We can’t promise plant miracles, but we’ll do our best to help babies look happy and green again. Love your plant but not vibing with your pot or accessories?
