Pay attention to suitable lighting conditions

In nature, the dragon tree often thrives in sun-drenched landscapes such as the Canary Islands. Nevertheless, most varieties of the dragon tree are rather sensitive to excess direct sunlight. You should therefore not place the dragon tree directly in front of a south-facing window. On the other hand, windows facing east, west or north are better suited. You can also use a curtain to protect the dragon tree from too much midday sunlight in order to get a Fall of the leaves to avoid. If the location is darker than partial shade, the plants stretch with theirs growth after this lightso that a Cut back to the Size limit may become necessary.

If a high level of humidity does not exist by itself, as in the bathroom, for example, the following measures can be helpful:

• regularly spraying the leaves with water
• the installation of special humidifiers
• drying laundry in the open air in the room with the dragon trees
