My Dracaena Marginata


Question
QUESTION: Im not sure if i need to use a fertilizer on my plant or not and I also would like to know how many times I should water my plant

ANSWER: Hi Season, you didn't mention whether it was potted or not, but I would say you would be fine with Osmocote granulars once every 3 months; Dracaeanas are pretty reslient, and should do just fine with that. Water it once a week if contained inside, outside should get the same, but Mother Nature will help out there. Nick

QUESTION: i was wondering my Dracaena marginata is in a pot but on one of the branches it is missing all the leaves I was wondering if they will grow back and what is the Osmocote granulars you mentioned in your last question

Answer
Osmocote is a well balanced fertilizer sold in Lowes, Walmart, Home Depot etc. it comes in a small plastic container and is like little pellets; its a very good quality fertilizer, and will be perfect for your Dracaena every 3 months, because it is slow release. I would need to see an image of the bare branch, it may or may not regenerate growth. Nick
