Dracaena Tornado 4”

Dracaena ‘Tornado’ brings a sculptural twist to the classic indoor plant. Its glossy green leaves curl and spiral into a compact rosette, creating a striking silhouette that adds texture without taking up much space. An easygoing choice for a shelf, desk, or small plant collection, it pairs distinctive foliage with a manageable care routine.

Care guide

• Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Tolerates lower light, but growth may slow. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
• Water: Allow the top third of the potting mix to dry before watering thoroughly. Let excess water drain away, and never leave the pot sitting in water.
• Soil: Use a well-draining indoor potting mix in a container with drainage holes.
• Humidity: Average household humidity is generally suitable. Keep away from heating vents and cold drafts.
• Temperature: Prefers warm, stable indoor temperatures around 65–80°F.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength about once a month during spring and summer. Reduce feeding when growth slows.

Extra tip: Dracaenas can develop brown leaf tips from mineral buildup. If this becomes an issue, try filtered, distilled, or rainwater and avoid overfertilizing.

Pet safety: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep out of their reach.
