Dracaena Goldieana or Gold Dust Dracaena
ADD A BEAUTIFUL FITTED POT (OPTIONAL)
Dracaena Goldieana, or the Gold Dust Dracaena, is a very hard-to-find plant and arguably the most beautiful of all the Dracaena species. This gorgeous houseplant brings a vibrant tropical feel to any room. With its striking, sword-like leaves speckled with golden highlights, this plant is perfect for anyone looking to add a touch of nature to their home, whether you're an experienced plant lover or just starting out.
Originally from the lush tropical forests of Africa, Dracaena Goldieana thrives under taller trees, allowing it to adapt well to indoor life. Unlike the slimmer Dracaena Marginata, this variety showcases broader leaves that really stand out.
Dracaena Goldieana Size:
At W14cm x H50cm, Dracaena Goldieana makes a bold statement, ideal for creating a beautiful focal point in your living space.
Dracaena Goldieana Styling at Home:

- Greenery Mix: Pair it with smaller houseplants to create a lovely layered look that showcases its height.
Dracaena Goldieana Care Requirements:
Taking care of your Dracaena Goldieana is straightforward. Here’s what you need to know:
- Light: It loves bright, indirect light but steer clear of direct sunlight to keep those leaves healthy.
- Watering: Let the top inch of soil dry out before you water. During the warmer months, it’ll appreciate a bit more moisture.
- Temperature: This plant thrives at 18°C to 24°C, making it a great fit for most homes.
- Feeding: For healthy growth, we suggest using Happy Houseplants’ Organic Tropical Plant Food. Our handmade, cruelty-free, vegan fertiliser is designed to support your plants. Just shake the bottle and mix it into warm water every other time you water.
