Exposure & location
The Dracaena Lemon Lime enjoys bright light without direct sun. It easily adapts to well-lit rooms and tolerates medium light.
- Ideal: living room, office, or bright room facing east or west.

Verdeia tip: rotate it regularly so light reaches all sides and maintains a harmonious shape.
Watering & care
- Watering: moderate — let the substrate surface dry between waterings.

- Humidity: tolerates dry apartment air but appreciates occasional misting.
- Care: remove lower or dry leaves to keep its shape neat.
- Level: easy — perfect for city dwellers seeking lasting greenery.
In winter, reduce watering and keep it away from direct heat sources (radiators, stoves, etc.).
