Dracaena fragrans Tornado Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Can’t handle the heat! These plants look like they like direct light, however too much sun will cause leaf streaking and eventually burning. Remove damage and remedy with some shade.
Tame the tipping! Blackening of leaf tips and leaf edges is a sign that the plant has had too much water. Allow to dry-out in-between waterings.
Bad hair day! This plant likes being watered from the base. Watering from above will cause water to get trapped in the crown, eventually rotting the centre leaves.
Light
Dracaena Tornado is a versatile plant, coping with light shade through to bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight however as this may burn or bleach the leaves.
Watering
Water when the soil starts to dry-out at the top. Water well and allow to drain thoroughly. Relatively drought tolerant. Do not overwater as this will cause the leaf tips to blacken.

Dracaena fragrans Tornado prefers average household temperatures between 16-24°C but can cope with as low as 12°C for short periods.
